As Pure As Possible

Help me, oh Lord,

The soul you have entrusted me with, 

As pure as possible to Thee, 

With 

My last breath, to surrender!

What a marvelous read from a blessed paged built on lines constructed with the lyrics of the skies and words well supported by dynamic foamy clouds. Message well expressed! No doubt an absolute 7##.

A personal plea, but a gentle reminder to us your readers. Each time I visit your page and discover more of your writes, I feel like I'm reading an extension of the Bible. Have a good day, sire. :) KIM
