PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I feel so terribly humbled
as I long look back
over the unflinching beauty
that has been my life
You've made me so
utterly rich
so many amazing souls
you have placed in my path
some in my limited sight
I likely in the moment
mistook for a negative
influence
and grumbled about
ungratefully
when later in a broader
sense I came to know
they did what they did
not so much to hurt me
but rather to guide and
teach me
retrospect is a beautiful
word and view to receive
so little darkness really
has tattered my
fleshed robes
but like all humans
I focused on each
those specks of darkness
and cried oh poor me
please forgive me
I know before I even
thought these words though
that you already had
I have no right to be upset
about anything
those few low tides
I stumbled through
were mere mild puddles
after such glorious rains came
all sent by you
the lovely people
who have dotted my life
throughout the years
the amazing gifts of
love, good will and needed
and or just wanted items
you showered me with
I become so moved
when I truly count my
blessings
some would see my life
for only its dribbling sad points
but they were dots
by comparison to all the
abundant light you joyously
chose to surround me with
wisdom has sat on my door step
for as long back as I can
remember
I've always talked to you
you send butterflies when I'm sad
or unsure
just like I once asked you to
so so long ago
you never forget to send them
I see others in pain
and wish I had your rare insight
to make them feel better
and sometimes you graciously
give me the words to help them
like you always have
done for me so beautifully
If I could lay at your loving feet
I'd cry and thank you
again and again
so much for your undying love
you speak to my heart
and I do as you say
the best thing I've ever believed
is we should let you through
our fallible beings show the world your love
I wish I could do more
I love to stand by your many mountains
and oceans cause they make me feel so
small and realize just how big you really are
and knowing every centimeter of your being
is brimming with love
you are love
you are perfection untainted
you are
'My Immortal Father'
and nobody can take you away from me
I love you far beyond
even the fringes of your blessed eternity
yet I know that you already know this
so very completely within your perfect
being
still I felt I must write this to you..................
