I got the idea for this piece from two places. The first one from a writing group who's challenge was to write a poem on change. The other from a license plate frame with this one it. Please let me know what you think.

~ 

The man's name was Noah. 

A man of great faith. 

Was given a promise, 

By the father of rainbows. 

The promise was God would never destroy, 

The Earth with water again. 

The rainbow is a sign of change. 

~ 

The woman's name is Lori. 

A woman of little faith. 

Is given a promise, 

By the man who died for her. 

The promise is Eternal life. 

The world is her oyster. 

The cross is a sign of change. 

~ 

The Ark saved Noah. 

When there was nothing else, 

Noah built an ship. 

The ark was his lifeline. 

It was his way of changing the world. 

~ 

The Cross saved Me. 

When there was nothing else, 

Jesus saved me by dying. 

He was spread on a dogwood tree, 

So I might live. 

He's my lifeline. 

This is my way of changing the world.
