I looked o'er the horizon...
and as rolling waves went crashing up
against the shoreline rocks all the while
frantic questions rise and flow
just like the tide - I don't know
where the endless worries end
and where begins the way I truly am...
I'm as worn as the sand...
Each day the ocean weighs
another burden that will move me -
I need to reach another place
away from all the sorrow
and away from all the pain.
So let it be today I cast no furtive glances.
I'll take my chances, holding faith,
for God will watch me well -
and as those turbid waters rage and swell
I will stand strong, and I will stand
yes I will stand
by God's hidden hand
I'll hold my own against the tide
and be lifted up by wings of eagles.
In naught but Christ, I find my safety
from the weight that seeks to bear me under.
Inspiration In A Prayer
This one I can send up in prayer with a few additions, like song by Adam...creativity provided by Adam, love of God also sent from Adam...truely an inspiring pen to pad, from the poet with the Biblical handle, an original...lol and hugs and prayers - allets

Sigh.
A confession.
I don't know what it is about this poem.
I really like it though.
I keep coming back to it for some reason..
I don't know..
What I do know is because of this beautiful writing you inspired within me patter, Pitter. Just wanted to share that with you. I was bothered; I think; all day because of it. That's not like me. To not let the author or writer know..
Sorry for that.
In any case this was a very touching read to me.
So thank you.

Ashes!
I really appreciate this. The poem is what I've been through lately, and its a bit raw. It means a lot that you see it as beautiful. The spoken word group Listener inspired my form. Anyway, I'd love to hear what thoughts this set you off to or whatever :P Anyway, I'll post on pitter patter now!

Sparrow.
The lowly little sparrow.
That is what it was.
You captured my very essence.
My significance soared with you.
I felt as though I've given up hope,
but I know ..
No ..
Although my wings clipped.
I still stand.
Head held high.
Arms reach towards the heavens,
and I know ..
Yes ..
His eyes are upon me.
I feel at peace.
That was the spark I breached.
My freedom I felt was reduced.
Restrained.
Limited.
Slightly temperate.
These four walls are always bearing down on me.
I get intimidated.
I feel strong, but inside I'm weak.
The mood was sad for me, but the aura beautiful you see?
As I opened my heart ..
I felt you change me.
Shape me.
Turn me.
Add an adjustment.
A new addition.
A correction.
Modification.
I think to where I didn't know me.
I've always been alone whether I chose that path, or not.
I just don't know.
Those three words always come up.
I don't know.
My thoughts for you to bear.
I can't elaborate perfectly.
I'm struggling here.
Sorry ..
