Miracle, A Poem

Tags

Cedric, Christianity, Family, guest poet, relationship with God, Religion

My son Cedric penned this poem and I just had to post it here.

Miracle

Is my life ending?

I lie on my bed

My mind in turmoil

I try to the best of my ability

But I still can’t shake off this feeling

That something can go wrong

If only I can turn back the wheels of time

I will make it right

2

I do not go through this alone

Many others feel the same anxiety

Only I am a little less apprehensive

Because there is a sliver of light penetrating this darkness

Believing in the Divine Being that keeps me moving

Believing that a miracle will come my way

The day of reckoning has come upon me

Echo of Silence

to the end

Living Water

a droplet of water

as if from the branches
soothing my parched soul

spring of living water
a covenant
that I thirst no more

APED – Prompt 39: Thrill

Tags

Christianity, Jesus Christ, Nature, thrill

Done for Gilly and a A Prompt Each Day. Inspired by the following words and photo

Thrill

remembered days

are a filter in my mind

seeping with long forgotten snippets

of words laced with the echoing tenor

of promises broken

but those golden moments

of a lull

in breathing

and a hush

in the singing of birds

that glorious moment

when the dew is still fresh on the blooms

and I’m hypnotised by the beady shimmers

time stands still.

those moments

when from fluffy clouds

breaking through the dawn

I hear your whispers

in the gentle swaying of palms

I hear your voice

in the aroma of melodies 

brewing from the mahogany

behind my window

that moment

I sigh in exultation

You thrill me, Lord.
