God's Kind of Poetry

I formed the poet to be my clay pen To dance on the pin tip of my understanding I delight in words All things came into existance through my words The planets The stars The moon The sun The universes beyond what you can see They are tethered by my imagination I am a God of order I delight in repetition My ways are perfect What you see a chaos, fits perfectly into my plans I occupy all the spaces I exist within each breath My energy flows from beginning to end and back again I allow you to glimpse my shadow For my full Glory would consume your human form I am beyond your comprehension Yet I wish you to know me Ponder me Come into my loving arms My words are written on ancient scrolls Each verse contains my essence My invitation to a wondorous feast Taste the succulence of my bounty The flavours my affection My consummate Love Do not be concerned with the temporary Trust in my grace For I know all your needs This world will one day disappear Paradise will reside under your feet I will be your completion Dancing will have new meaning Rivers will sparkle like diamonds The skies will no longer need the sun For I will be your light We will walk through a new Jerusalem Streets of gold Buildings encrusted in precious gems Trees will be laden with fruit No hunger No tears My children will know freedom Strength will course through veins Angels will walk in their midsts Age will no longer be their enemy Death will be a forgotten memory For I am God My words My poetry They can be your reality Make use of your free will I am bound by my own promises You must choose my path Be a vessel of my Love You my clay pen Can flow With golden ink For this contest I am asked to write from the perspective of God. It is an insurmountable task for one as limited as myself. I humbly submit this attempt and pray that it honors my heavenly Father. I am reposting this one after reading Miraj's excellent piece "His Way".

Written with humility, spirit, and knowledge of Scripture. To be a clay pen that flows with golden ink ... there is little more spectacular than that, depending on who is holding that pen! Your words sing, my friend ...
