PATTY GRIFFIN

As you paint your songs with colours divine
And words you so assiduously mined 
You leave me standing breathlessly behind
Your visceral emotion hypnotically opined.

Mesmerising destructive bewitching my soul 
Wreckingly angelic your voice takes its toll
And leaves me in wonder at feelings you extoll 
And tears into pieces the form that once was whole 

Just wrap me in your exquisite tones tonight...

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.
