With hands outstretched, Lifted a small distance. Palms to the sun, warmth Felt, heartfelt. Eyes aimed At the light, all seeing. You are, embody who you Want to be. Who you see To be. Make your choice, Yours to make, you see? Whoever says you’re maimed Fails everything, it’s etched In your whole being: You are who I am seeing, Complete and whole to me. *** April 13, 2017 Copyright © Darren White

yes, we better believe it. "God is not a man that he should lie ..." NUMBERS 23:19. He loves each one of us as His masterpieces. Since humans love so selfishly, we can't begin to understand that in Jesus, we are totally accepted by God as is. Then, we start walking with Jesus (and bear FRUIT for others=testimony). He first loves us ...U are so right.U have REVELATION, amen. thanks --- healing is His children's bread. Shalom

Right on, dude. : ) The unlived life - that which we cannot yet attain - how close are we, and can we reach it? We are becoming.

Darren, your wonderful poem reminded of 'The Help' when Abilene is trying to teach the little girl to be loving to all people and says; "You is smart, you is kind, you is important." You are very important my friend, and your humanity shines in you poetry:) Amitiés
