Psalms In Haiku Poems Author's Note

Author's Note

The Book of Psalms commonly referred to simply as PSALMS,is a book of the Hebrew Bible.Taken together they are 150 poems that do express Israel's religious faith.

Psalms originally means " Music of lyre " or "Songs sung to harp ".Psalms include Songs of Thanksgiving,Hymns of Praise,Psalms of Prayer.Psalms attract the people of all faiths,provides peace, harmony and healing.

Psalms as such are poems,I brought this into Haiku Poems of the Japanese pattern ( 5,7,5 ) and format.These Haiku Poems do not deviate from the original tempo,essence,significance and reverence and all that.

Me a paraplegic patient on wheelchair,psalms for me is a way of living which inspire my soul and take me near to our Lord Jesus Christ.Psalm will continue to inspire from generation to generation,foundation to foundation and congregation to congregation.
