Our Beginning Until the End - Ode To Edward Plunkett

I have nothing to say about you
But I have everything to say

You came into my loveless life
Like an explosive tornado

Emotions like a river freed from it's barrier
A Lazarus break forth from the grave

How sweet to be alive again
Love's blood flowing in my veins

We question not God's timing
Nor the why or how of it

We do know His time is perfect
This indeed is our timeless love

"Many waters cannot quench love
Neither can the floods drown it". (Songs of Solomon 8:7)

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

I like your faith-based work. Love is not really love if God isn't in it. Sara
