~ Perfect beauty rests within- ~
~ diligent prayer brings hope ... ~
~ new faith ... modesty worked ~
~ brings answers answers found ~
~~ within, through searching- ~~
true satisfaction achieved, ~~
~~ ponders contently ... ~~
all possibilities, revealed through life's ever advancing-
epiphany ... chances encountered, become realized ... boldly
taken, never wasted-enchanted boldly time works clay, work
accepted before times beginning ... tenderly molding ambition
envisioned-amid-hate lives absence-honesty embraces light
knowing only love, aware- truth knows, nothing evolves ...
exercising impatience, bitterness merely inherits hate-
lesson proposed ... accepting Gods intended virtue ...
welcoming grace. Followers-honest, move openly ...
willing- living life able-clay worked faithfully,
becomes goodwill realized ... for life's pains
grow greater giving birth, grateful-
humble maker remains open,
willing throughout knowing-
true patience worked, moves
always mindful ... always able.
Knows nothing ~more beautiful-
~~nor better, than the work. ~~

Sitting here mid the stillness, in this moment calm, quiet and
connected;- my-time-alone to-play-with-God, has come. As I dance
with Him through tender-woods-and-fields of green. Pondering-new
days joys beheld those of cool winds awakened visions of things unseen.
Cradled in His-arms of love waltzing-away as one amid-our-fond ascension,
and euphoric, cachinnation. Catching-leaves-together-with-pen in-hand,
as-they fall, while to the thrill-of my-minds-contentment, days of my
youth return to me, as the true goodness of their nature, I recall,
while scales of worry's slip-away and my-heart soars-free. Yes
amid-this simple beauty-I find-God, through the patient art,
of poetry. As His love and hope, and-peace-fulfill-me,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~ covering me;- ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~ protecting me;- ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~ teaching me;- ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~ advancing me;- ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~ directing me;- ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~
~ holding me;- ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~
~ carrying me;- ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~
~ molding me- ~
~~~~~~~~~~~
~ honing me;- ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~
~ completing me;- ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~ when I-am writing! ~~~
