WITH POETRY, I CAN WRITE ABOUT

Assertive altruism always devoid of arrogance Benefits, bountiful to share with blessed elegance… Caring disposition midst compassionate heart forever Devoted, dedicated commitment, wavering never… Earnest faith smiting every challenge toward victory Fervent trust conquering all trials against misery… Goals that can prosper mankind against greediness Hope hoisting prisoners to soar midst freedom-graciousness… Influential force liberating the captives from ignorance Justice of impactful truth guiding against deceit’s appearance… Kindness so much to practice beyond functional limit Love verily overflowing, being exercised every minute… My reason is to write about divine virtues while reality prevails Now, I testify that my poetry is inspired by God* Who never fails… Oh, the Lord I ask for miracles in my muse along His might Praying that my poems please HIM with my grateful delight. *Deuteronomy 32:3 Because I will publish the name of the LORD: ascribe ye greatness unto our God.

You have beautifully brought out the fact that poetry is not separate from a life of love, compassion, caring, sharing, liberating, and living with divine virtues. Congratulations!
