Notes About The Poem

I'D Die For This

Gentle whispers, like quiet roses Softly opening, pouring out their fragrance Against a sunny afternoon, In the winds, a breeze singing Through the tender leaves, dancing On the ends of steely branches Peaceful slumber, echoing in dreams Laughing, breathless like the inspirations Stirred to life by His grace, The wonder of light in His face, Joy, falling in rays of silent praise Coloring our hopes in beautiful awakening Poetry and prose, both alive as a psalm Pouring out desire through the heart and soul A fire burning with passion, erasing All the doubt, dread and devastation From the soul who knows that His blessings Are like light poured out through the dark Wisdom etches a bliss through the one Who knows that God inhales adoration, worship Falling from lips in kisses, prayers Breaking free from the wounds of sorrow Opening the heart to the miracles and wonders Like stardust shimmering on the night Love so alive it glows through the skies, twinkling in rays of affection Promising glory beyond any perfection His love rains down pleasures, enchantment Faith that abides, restores hearts With His still, small voice – His abiding mercy His love is what I strive for, what I’d die for! 2022 Poetry Marathon Qualifiers' FINAL Placement Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Mark Toney Entered on February 6, 2023 from: 2022 Poetry Marathon Mile 4 Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Mark Toney Submitted Entry: June 20, 2022

"Poetry and prose, both alive as a psalm Pouring out desire through the heart and soul A fire burning with passion, erasing All the doubt, dread and devastation" . Hi Gina what power you have invested on the poetry of those who knows the blessings of God. Their poetry is like psalms. So true in your case. Congratulations on your win in the Marathon poetry race.
