The Eagle (a lament)

Powerful once

Alone at a glance

Flying to and fro

Searching he goes

But comfort not around


His siblings

Nowhere found

Night comes over

To what used to be

His abode high above all


Lies now low

On the floor

He gathers the pieces

Carrying them high

Oh what a sight!

I have been committed to teaching the truth of the Word of God beginning with Trans World Radio on Bonaire, N.A and Swaziland, Africa (1969-1980), then through churches in the United States in both English and Portuguese and then through ministry in Israel (2005-2006). This ministry continues through local Bible studies and outreach to the world via the internet. I have written a book about my life from that of an orphan in Brazil to missionary in 5 countries. You can find out more on the "Book" page of our blog site.
