Christian poetry by Frank Westall
Hello I'm Frank Westall and welcome to my poetry website.
The poems I write are inspired by my Christian faith and I hope the videos, audio and text you find here encourage and bless you greatly.
Frank Westall with his wife Nancy
“For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.”
2 Corinthians 5:21 NKJV
Poem of the month
A Lad I Never Knew
A lad, I never knew,
Lies buried in the soil
His gift to me,
His future years
To breathe in freedom's air
His - terror in the bloodied mud
Mine - tending plants in peaceful days
He - far from home and love's embrace
Me - wrapped in warmth and touched by grace
I raise my glass to bless your head
And thank you for your gift to me
And though I may not know your name
I'll know you in eternity

I’m the answer
“…you expect me to believe
that I vanish into nothing
with the last breath
that I breathe?”

‘but the bluebells reigns supremely, catching every beam of light, as the birdsong fills the heavens and your senses reignite.’
