~ Poem the 1st Chap. Inspired Bye ~ Part #30
~ So when before I was brought to know such
a day as this ... yes-once it weighed heavily
on me the thought; will it ever-come ...
yes and my pain, will it never-end? ~
~ While in the instance of my depression
I was unable to see the love of God well
within the waters, kind reflection; but
now; now through Him I have come to
behold and live to tell of the treasure
therein contained and abounding. Within
this joyous and ever humbling-divine day
for me of revelation, and so now; now-my-
joy-has-been-sustained. For when I am to
ponder the simple nature of His love in all
of its purity, and patient delights; visions
of these they skip across my mind from
time to time. As my eager-hand ... the
open-gesture, it moves to lay ahold
of the promise of another. ~
~ As this intention that I've picked up I carry
now and cast-briskly ... into the darkness of
the moist liquids, to land. As the-ripples gentle
gliding they come to move in freedom across
the vivid reflection, of this glassy-sheen, while
slowly they are brought to roll along evenly
with me-and-onward to-lay in peace-beside
the stillness; of the open-shores. As-swiftly my-
thoughts of God-and-life they move and-dance,
upon the-humble shallows deeper and-ever deeper
into the heart, of the waters ... and so my heart
here stands-in view of-this-and feeling fonder. ~
~ For-the tender ... thoughtful-kisses I give each
place here in my heart that abide-amid the presence
of Gods' supreme love, and-perfect-goodness; given-now-
for the many blessings that I see. Amid the glory of-His
many-other-wonders; I give my-heart again this-day; more-
time ... for the nature of their-open-beauty; to-ponder. ~
because-
ethereal-
elegance-love,
veracious-forever-
enchanting. ~

~~ Time tender ~~
~ terry's to-and-fro, ~
~ their finger running ~
~~~ through its hair. ~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Joy ... runs, embraces-
~~~~ itself! ~~~~

~ Love lost, the aching-
desire, burning-within, frail,
though; will I rise, greater-
before days; because
promised, hope-
chance; verity
my faith these
gentle-whispers-
echo-the-opportunity,
and so it is to them-I-
answer, fall before. For this;
God; I-know would never negate. ~
Patience-holds the-hand-of-grace.
Wisdom embracing-knowing-love,
peace ... holds-the-hand-of-truth,
will-together all-discern ... !
