Sonnet of Worship

I worship you for the plan made for me
From the beginning you knew the tree
The sun, moon, stars nestled at height just right
An atmosphere that surrounds with good light

Through the centuries you knew when to come
To redeem humanity and touch man some
Bringing hope to a lost and dying world
With your teachings, blood, sweat, tears earth did swirl

The guider, comforter, holder of my heart
Omniscience, all knowledge from the very start
Capturing my heart with all that you made
Creating it from your words needed no spade

Exalt my redeemer, friend, comforter
Valentine, my heart is an admirer


(Second attempt at a sonnet.  This is for the "I love you because" contest.)

Its beautiful Sara but the rules for Matt's contest were no use of the word love anywhere in the poem or title and not to repeat the line of I love u because... don't want to see this beauty disqualified as Matt was quite specific in his guidelines.. maybe u could substitute your word "love" with another and use this same body of the poem... great write ... blessings.. luv..
