Eileen R. Kelly Poet Lyric

I Stand Before You

Renounce me not...
denounce me...only with
mine own will...

I stand before you...
therefore I am 
for all in sundry
I shrill...

I come with everything
 I own...

everything that is truly
mine...

my courage 
my wisdom
my spirit
my soul

my everlasting love
for one woman I betroth

my belief is strong...

you may find shelter
in my words...

fear me not...
for I will be heard...

prepare thyself

for I lay down my claim...

you will step aside
you will allow me safe passage

for my heart will challenge thee
for my word you can rely...

for I will reach my love
My faith rides with me
this very day

my faith I will not deny...
