Notes About The Poem

His Sacrifice

Losing worries 
Beneath the stardust
Moments, 
Embracing peace
Inside the soul stirring
Promises,
Breathing colors
Hues vibrant, soothing
Beautiful 
Like the candle’s dance

Sparkling like the moon
Rising beyond clouds
Whispering silent rhymes
Into the sapphire skies,
Erasing the night with lights
Blazing in fires of insight
Reflecting the joy of a sunrise
Flowing beyond the ridges,
In windy limericks –
Beating elegies, verses
Visions in epics, prose, words
Released by the gentling
Spirit of laughter, smiles
Kind and vibrant, soothing 
Away the disillusion, the confusion
With belief that holds onto
Hope, faith and love – in a grasp
	Handed down from His wonder
His blessings of joy unimaginable,
Joy alive inside the soul,
Joy that believes and controls
The pen, the page, the poet’s statement

This is poetry’s fire lingering 
Inside, secrets of the soul,
Exciting like the most inspiring 
Moment, the timelessness
Inside the wise words, delighting 
Stirring fires of grace abiding…

Across the night,
Glowing, glittery glimmers
Exciting the sunlight at dawn, 
the moon’s thoughts -
With a flow of haunting
Treasures in praise, prayers –
Penetrating poetry – pieces of peace,
Pieces of impressions
Brought to life inside the one who knows
His love is the everlasting hope
The second chance to bring alive
The remarkable, the exceptional, the
Notable – the cherished thoughts,
Stanza of grace, vision so startling
It feels like the way through the past,
Around the worries, the struggles,
Through the pain and confusion –
Into the miraculous place
Where His light lifts all the mist away
Clears the way for a new day,
A new hope, a new prayer, a new
Wisdom opening up the life
Who knows the meaning of His sacrifice!
