The Gift: Rebirth

THE GIFT: REBIRTH Oh God, my Dearest God... clothed me fine with your love divine upon magma pits that hid me Oh God, my Dearest God... take me, save me... Save me! My life gnarled old like cathedral trunks deep rooted under brown solid soil ground. Branching trials somehow coiled and pinned me down.. So as dark cyclopean sins fog me; shuddering my peace and sane. Oh God, my Dearest God how calm, oh so calm, you came. How quiet, oh so quiet you cared How gently, oh so gently, You cushioned me Lovingly, oh so lovingly, YOu rescued me. Tumbling twixt to pillars of dawn and twilight Oh God, my Dearest God With You, threading mountain to mountain of woes, lead me to harvest free to orchard gifts of wisdom, hope and strength even to crystal stairs of limitless amber wonder, You let me experience to pursue these borders. Oh God, my Dearest God... With our partnered walk icy drizzle of snowtalk melted gradually... Oh God, my Dearest God... By siblings of smiles and golden gestures You permitted me to have anew nurture. Oh God, my Dearest God allow me then to hymn a psalm let it be a humble hum of my gratitude to Your matchless charm. Barefoot, oh God, I will come baring all and bowing down. I will deliver my soulful cry that my aged misty life is gone And that, now is a present rainbow valley of rebirth.. © O. E.

Excellent, Olive_eloi!! This is one great poem expressed deeply with love and conviction. You describe your rebirth as such an enriching experience. Perhaps it is how it has been presented to you that makes it appear so beautiful...who knows, maybe you had it all before and did not realize!:) Take care and good luck. hugs // paul

Yes maybe Paul I had it all but I seem sometimes confused or too busy to fathom that it's already present.. And yes it is just lately I have become so intimately knocked to know and acknowledge this..:) hence I'm really so grateful ... I really wish I can do more.... You know
