His first name? Seth. His last name? Cook. His old man face made people look. His suffered from a rare disease that made him age too soon. And though at times some kids were rude, Seth shrugged them off. His attitude is one we all should emulate. He chose to wear a smile. That three foot giant died last week. His death has caused our eyes to leak. The wit and charm that Seth possessed can't fully be replaced. We ache for what this boy endured. The stinging taunts he likely heard. The dreams he'd never realize. The curse of being odd. A precious lad whose years were few was living proof that what we do means even more than what we say. Seth taught us how to live. He even taught us how to die. While voicing dreams, regrets and whys, Seth faced the future unafraid. He knew that death meant life. O God, be near Seth's mom and dad. Because he's gone, they're feeling sad. They miss their boy whose loving eyes gave us a glimpse of You.

Sunday Rhymes & Reasons
Published June 4, 2009
Sunday Rhymes and Reasons is a compilation of inspirational poetry by America's pastor/poet laureate, Greg Asimakoupoulos. In this, his third volume of poetry, Pastor Greg paints word pictures that portray both the struggle and fulfillment that define a life of faith. His repertoire of rhymes celebrate rite-of-passage occasions like birth, baptism, marriage and death as well as the major holidays of the church and culture. It is a volume that illustrates the poet's love of words and of popular culture. The author dips his brush into a paint box of hubris, humor and honesty.
"Gloria and I have been encouraged by word pictures from Greg's pen that have celebrated both our ministry and God's presence in our world." – Bill Gaither, Gospel music composer/performer
"Gifted poet Greg Asimakoupoulos is a dear friend of our family. His poetry blesses, comforts, entertains, and provides inspiration for every season of life." – Natalie Grant, singer/songwriter/recording artist
