Book Description
I am an Armenian poetess, novelist and a memoirist. Armenia adopted Christianity as a state religion in 301 AD.
“LETTERS TO JESUS” is my latest poetry book that refers to Christian literature that is centered on Christian faith, philosophy and moral themes. It also reveals a spiritual connection between earthly life and eternity that includes poetry and philosophical synthesis. The poems are letters to our Savior that I wrote with poetic metaphors in a figurative language to create rich imagery with emotional resonance.
“LETTERS TO JESUS” unfolds the human condition in earthly life’s troubles with powerful faith in eternal perspective.
Here are the last few line from one of my poems that speaks of spiritual growth and eternal perspective.
Isaiah says, “enlarge the place of your tent,
stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back;
lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes."
Every tent is fragile like a spring bluebell.
My dear Jesus, my ink flows not only from my pen.
It flows from my veins that are the pipes of my tent.
All the poems are actually letters from Earth to Heaven with a poetic voice and descriptive expressions that create vivid mental images.
Here are the first few lines from one of my poems that express earthly life’s challenges and a hopeful expectation for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. This poem sounds like a dialogue from Earth to Heaven.
“Hello my Jesus, I have your note.
I am reading, my Jesus, what You wrote,
“don’t judge the world, I am coming.
Don’t cry for those whom you lost.
Don’t cry as they are coming.
Your tears are dripping like raindrops.
Wipe your eyes with a soft cloth of your hope.
Don’t rush me as my way is quite long.
I am coming to bring justice for the world…”
