- On Your Wings -

A beautiful magic full of grace butterfly dance As precious gold and sparkling jewels in trance Choice is yours, choose your quest A new beginning build your own nest Sometimes in life, we need to make a decision Try as hard you are able to, the future to envision God has you in his arms, you have him in your heart You know many stars passing sweetheart Even though you may regret your choice Ask yourself, listen to your own voice Being apart and lonely feels like wet and cold snow Yet if you look closer, you will find the rainbow Be yourself, generous and kind Soft sweet music in the air above you will find 16.09.2015 A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved * My first attempt at a sonnet poem :)

Oh, did not realize you were writing a sonnet. Not easy following the parameters but you are on you way. To hone down on meter and syllables per line if you want to go there: http://www.shadowpoetry.com/resources/wip/sonnet.html many different kinds of sonnets it can get overwhelming, which is why I probably have never written one..ha ha. Good work. Thomas

Enjoyed the rhymed poem, but the message, and following God's Word [Joshua 1:9] using your poetry; Jesus is Lord. Good work. Thomas
