Notes About The Poem

Prayers and Psalms - 1

I utter a prayer
I gasp a psalm

Soft, tender kisses
A gentle embrace 
Soothing beyond description 
My heart will race
Trying to catch up
With the love flowing 
Through his veins 

A whisper of joy
Stirring my hopes
With passion and promises 
Of lights in hues of
Lavender and lilac
Underneath a tangerine 
Moon glowing with truth
Bright and vibrant
Inspiration, inner beauty 

A sigh of God’s light
Murmur of insight 
Through a heart alive
With a sense of serenity 
That stirs light in those
Who know love so sure
Love that lasts
Love that is kind, alive
Spoken of in prayers
That I Breathe into God’s ear

With him, I am myself
