Sweltering hot stars melt the distant thoughts With laughter and a twinkling gaze, flickering Coloring the night in hues of tangerine and rose Music whispering on the silhouettes of light Reflected on calm, cool waters who flow clear On the edge of forests stuffed with oak and pine Poison ivy climbing the edges of shadows, kissing Moonbeams with tender affection so warm and kind Joy this divine reminds me why His love inspires me To inscribe dreams ~ Poetic leaves, windswept Free as His gift of grace Hallelujah, Hallelujah… Joy screams through the silence Lingering on the miracle of a feeling so real and rare A feeling flushed with yearning and passionate promises Nurturing the soul with a harvest of kindness and hope Love that is His greatest gift, His embrace come down To hug my soul with tears running like raindrops across Petals and cheeks, painting a portrait of glorious faith Through the darkness that intends to haunt the heart Yet finds itself unable to resist the urgency of a dream Dividing the senses into breathless sensations of beliefs Gentling the wild desire of a curious young cub Changing it to innocence which calms and soothes Blends truth, wisdom, peace and honest prayer To assure the heart of the gift Unconditional love sent to remind us We are His – Children of God And He is living inside us A guiding light Hallelujah, Hallelujah … His gift of love is powerful Mightier than the most violent tornado Potent as the poison on a viper’s tongue Vigorous and influential like the Creator Who knows our hearts and souls, all our thoughts Even down to the last breath or touch And He knows we will eventually face Him The One who knows us best and gives us mercy Through the Holy Spirit who fights for us Reminding us of the One who died for us And continues to abide with us ~ Eternally A part of us we need more than we need to breathe He is the risen Savior and He is my everything!

Very expressive and emotive faith based work that you have penned. I believe that you could not have written this one without a faith in God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Congrats on your placement in the contest. Sara
