The Harp of Gold by Carol Eliassen



Back in elementary school probably around 5th or 6th grade I wrote about Vietnam.  I remember the substance of the story/poem but can only remember these specific words.  It was about the true love of a girl whose boyfriend or husband was killed in Vietnam.  I think from what I remember it had something to do with a girl running up a hill and opening a gate and then falling down and seeing the harp with the inscription.  I had a wild imagination then and still do.  I just need to write it all down.  

A friend or one I thought was a friend back in elementary school asked if she could borrow my stories/poems ( I had many) so she could copy them and would give them back.  Unfortunately, they are lost forever because she refused to give them back to me.  Maybe that is why I like to publish things online now because they will hopefully always be there!  Hope you enjoy reading.  I'm thinking about using this part I remember and writing an online story.  Check back for more.   

There was a harp pure of gold
A foreign made kind
It said Vietnam

What About You?

What About You? You may have free will,  that is true. Picking your path  without a clue.  You look to your own device knowing  you will only gain the world.  I can't emphasize enough that  in the end it will fade like a mural.  Your eyes are closed as  the world draws you in.  I can pray for you, but without God  my words just melt in the wind.  You sow what you reap.  We all do, be it for good or evil.  The difference you may ask  is not what equals.  The difference is God,  the rapture is true,  we shall ascend, but  what about you?  There is a slim chance  on a tribulation date,  you will have to sacrifice your body  on God's holy slate.  You can ask him to save your soul  in a world filled with fool's gold. Your reward will be to enter the gates  made of pearls but void of hate!  Eternity is my goal.  I want to take you as I go.  Don't hesitate...

A Child of God

I believe yet I'm not perfect. I know, yet I'm not the most knowlegable I care yet I'm not the most compassionate I am yet I don't truly know myself I love yet don't always feel loved I  reach out but can never totally grasp I explore yet don't feel I'm moving forward But, when I pray, I move mountains! When I trust and hope I feel the power! When I give my all to Christ I am all of the above...
