Poem
“Aslan, why does the sun shine so bright in Narnia?” I queried. “My friend,” the big lion told me, “it is a light that is unwearied.” “Why must we all feel so full of this darkness, dear Aslan?” “The dark shadows fall away once you repent to the Son.” “Dear Aslan,” I whispered quietly, “when will I know true hope?” “When you let go of the past – it’s pain, dread and fear, learning to let go and cope.” “Why do I feel like I don’t have the strength to make it, Aslan?” “Because you are weary, my friend, just believe and I’ll give you the power that won’t be outdone.” “Aslan, dear lion,” I pled, “Will I go to heaven when I’m dead?” “All you need to do is believe, friend, for heaven to be ahead.” “Whatever comes in this life,” I asked him, “Can I depend on you?” “I’ll always be there, dear child,” he said, “from end to end, all through. I’ll never leave you nor forsake you. I am available to protect you.” “Aslan,” I smiled, “I seemed to know you – even as a small child. Were you there even then? When I was so small I couldn’t see you were mild?” “Yes,” he grinned, “I have always been your friend. The guide to your heart and soul. The one who helped you to know – comfort and faith, the miracle that made you whole.” “I will always love you, Aslan,” I spoke louder, “my heart will always yearn for your home above.” “Listen up, sweet child,” he spoke, “let your heart be your guide and always know… in life and in love, faith will make a way for your soul to know the joy of silencing the fear and listening to the One who pours out His blessings, His love on the heart who knows that this life is only a stepping stone to the real life that is yet to come. Have faith, show grace and give God your embrace!” a conversation with a fictional character Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Natasha L Scragg (Aslan, my character, is from The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis) February 20, 2022
