Virginia Beach, VA Author Publishes Religious Poetry

"Soulful Poems of Godly Love," a new book by Gerald Proctor, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

"Soulful Poems of Godly Love" is a collection of poems from a man who professes his devotion as a servant of God, a friend, a husband, and a father.

"Special Delivery" assures every one of us that in this callous and hateful world where we feel alone, God will always be with us no matter what. "I sit and wail, in this world I'm tiny and so frail/Scared of this place, scared to go to hell…But one day I got some mail./The senders name was JESUS CHRIST/He said hold on to me for I love and know you well,/You're not Alone…."

In "Oh So Special," he considers friendship as a gift from God. "Your stature is pleasing, I marvel at your ways/Just at the thought of you, you brighten up my days/You're loving kind, one of a kind, from GOD special made/Through these times, through all times, memories of you never fade."

A man remorseful of his sinful living, begging for forgiveness from his wonderful wife, asking for a second chance is what "Superman" depicts. "Baby forgive me for all the wrongs I've done, I never meant/to hurt you and now that God's in my life I see who's the/source of where my wrong comes from…words can't express how much I love and adore you….Trusting in our hearts, knowing we're one of a kind, you/and me together, erasing all thoughts of time/No interruptions, Just God, a man, his kids and His wife,/Content being together living a wonderful, peaceful, family life."
