Gracious Grace

Gotta Love Alliteration 5-21-24 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Gracious Grace Endless effervescence of grace, In riots of radiance, infected by innocence, Seeks out the heart harassed by humiliation – Wrapped in sleepless shrouds of incensed worry – When alliterations of angst plunder soiled spirits with pandemonium Grace, the eternal romantic, lavishes love. Purity, born of playful purity, Tames tempests of melancholy mistrals As midnight murmurs into dawn’s jubilant joy As dusky dews flow from fountains of forgiveness With eternal elixirs from the everlasting For the pensive plea of the penitent pilgrim. Grace sings the ageless anthem of sweetest sanctuary In honeyed breaths for the hobbled heart to inhale Ever abiding loveliness, always in ascent, Tingling with tenderness, opening soldered seas of sin, Miracle made manifest in majestic melody With promises penned in poems of peacefulness.

Amazing alliterations.. Your poem concludes with grace being described as "ever abiding loveliness, always in ascent," which evokes a sense of constant growth and elevation. The imagery of "tingling with tenderness" and "opening soldered seas of sin" suggests that grace not only heals but also liberates, breaking the bonds of sin and leading to spiritual freedom. The final lines, "Miracle made manifest in majestic melody / With promises penned in poems of peacefulness," underscore the divine and poetic nature of grace, encapsulating its essence as a source of eternal peace and joy

Hi SO! Thank you so much for this beautiful message full of grace! Your feedback goes right to the heart of this poem (as always) - the full blessings of grace, the ability to heal and the ability of grace to "liberate" attitudes. Working through my understanding of grace through this poem was a walk through new understandings especially thinking about grace always "in ascent." I am so grateful for your your visit and the opportunity to share this poem with you! Sending you ascending grace!

In grace, there is abiding loveliness. It elevates hearts, forgives sins, lavishes love. Grace is a divine influence 'tingling with tenderness and opening soldered seas of sin'. It is "miracle made manifest in majestic melody/ With promises penned in poems of peacefulness." Lovely poem with beautiful alliteration. All the Best dear Sam.

It is the product of eternal optimism - everlasting tenderness - the source of grace is perpetual. I am so happy you liked this poem and that we shared is the special and unique, flow of grace in our lives. Sending blessings of grace to you!

Thank you so much, Sara. Writing this poem turned out to be a quest exploring the new shores of grace that generated a new understanding of grace for me.
