A Revelation

A Revelation

Sunrise greeted me through a purple haze.
The softest cooling breeze caressed my cheek.
Mauve filtered into rose clouds to amaze 
As prayerful meditation I did seek
Communion’s Divine guidance in my mind.
Did I hear the flutter of angel wings?
Your answer, to just release I did find.
When wrapped in Your agape love my heart sings.
Today I will begin my brand new start.
I leave my sorrow of loss in the past.
I let Your bright light fill my soul, my heart,
Let worries flee in calmness that will last.
As dawn fills morning skies in ev’ry hue
I know my great salvation lies with You.

This is a very beautiful sonnet; I like how you have woven the beauty of nature which God has made with the beauty of who He is. I also think you have the skills for the Rondea Redouble contest. I'm sure you can find the inspiration.

A sonnet, a sonnet, a sonnet, sharp as a hornet. Comfy as a silk bonnet. Congrats CONNIE. Apologies I'm a bit late ( between yesterday & now, three versions of OLiVE OiL poem kept getting SYSTEM ERROR). I'm grateful, so I won't complain -- except in next poems, LOL. shalom shalom
