Love and light

The completion I sought evaded me,
even though I lived every dream heart sought,
so I turned to God that soul may be free,
living in the now, unshackled from thought.

Relinquishing each conditioned belief,
skin warmed by the sun, soul touched by the breeze,
befriending silence I obtained relief,
ambling then through life with nonchalant ease.

Radiating light and sharing heart’s love,
treating my sojourn on earth as a game,
breath by breath God’s grace poured in from above,
thus in timeless tine, we became the flame.

Heart quick to forgive, I learnt how to live ~
Reflecting God’s light, I’ve so much to give

Thank you, Karen. I was moved to write this, feeling saddened by today’s youth, who seem to be lost …
