Notes About The Poem

Premiere Contest WinnerGiving Godly Grace

God but a word, unless felt in our heart
Ingrained prejudice, makes us feel apart
Verily, through surrender, our prayers start
Inviting Gods grace, to fill us within
Night and day, He cleanses feral toxins
Guiding us, we feel His touch on our skin

Grace in-pours; there is no separation
One with oneness, each breath meditation 
Dwelling in heart, vibrant is our silence
Living thus in divine entwined parlance 
Yielding to love; life a celebration 

Grace us with your embrace: our entreaty
Remove dark voids and our impurity 
Acts, words and thoughts, let each with love align
Clear light of truth, please to our mind assign 
Ensconced in Your arms for eternity
