A Soul Is Divine

Towards the light it always glides 
to find a resting place 
The anchor lies within its gloam 
its answer is a prayer ;
Beneath the keen observant eye  
of a Divine soul, the heart bequeaths its silver sleeve 
and makes a promised oath to serve and to protect ;
The soul, devoid of sly and mischief act  
can gleam as bright as noonday sun. 
Within the essence of its life 
pure love abounds inside a soul most true. 
Thank God he gave us souls to make us grow
I am grateful, and I know you must be too.

Rose, a truly uplifting and prayerful poem. The last 3 lines my favs: "love abounds inside a soul most true. Thank God he gave us souls to make us grow I am grateful, and I know you must be too." I am and thank you! God bless, Terrell

Dear Rose, a lovely and spiritual poem. I pray every day but at the moment I have so many issues that I am distracted in prayer. But one of my prayers is that God accepts me as I am and will forgive me. Your poem shines. Hugs.

Dear Victor, when it comes to God he doesn't keep count as much as we think he does. All he wants is a changed heart and someone who believes in His saving ways. He takes His children by the hand, and allows them safe entry, no matter what they think they have done.
