My Living Senryu

For the world will fall
     Seek your heart with in for peace
Allow your mind not

As our mind is free
     The enemy will use it
Just give in to God

Taste for it will please
     Your tounge will surely speak now
Speak not against He

Will you race the wind
     For it will take you up high
And cast you down fast

Trust if you must trust
     ask if you do not know of
As we all walk blind

We are all cold dead
     You must serve God to joy
For His love is great

Is your will to hear
     Or will you forever fear
Live my senryu

That's true, we all walk in darkness, without any kind of guidance at all but instinct and faith in the case of those who have it; thanks for sharing this, your words are filled with wisdom C=

No fear here, Jeremiah. There's much truth in what you say in your senryu. God bless you for your strong faith. Love, Carolyn
