Connie Marcum Wong Poet Abecedarian

Notes About The Poem

Spiritual Joy

Assuring more time to embrace the earth's sun
Brings with it sweet pleasures summer has spun.
Casting out a line in search of a suffering soul, 
Derives inner joy that is good for the whole.
Everyone may soon become quite aware, 
Favoring the spirit gifts so much to share.
God's greatest gifts are so freely given...
Help yourself to the sweet fruits of heaven.
Inside your mind lives pristine poetic flowers,
Just let them flow through tips of your bowers.
Kindred spirits will gravitate to your prose or rhyme,
Lyrics that sway us, dancing in harmonic time.
Moving to music creates tranquility,
Neutralizing harsh sounds with indemnity.
Omnipotence frees us from our emotional will, 
Penetrates our sanctuary when we are quiet and still.
Quality not quantity of life's special dreams
Related in love's happiness is all that it seems.
Seeking to help others will benefit you
Through the gift of your time, in kind things you do.
Universal energy is captured by all, 
Vibrating in frequencies in an invisible pall. 
We may share with each other our auras divine
Xyst beauty that surrounds in astrological trine.
Yearning to spread peace to indifference I find; 
Zealous in my heart to share love with mankind.

Constance La France July 23, 2015 at 4:20 PM Connie, you have penned a beautiful spiritual poem to accompany the lovely image, I like this form , I have done about two in this form and thanks for visiting my poem, dripping sweetness and your condolences, I was shattered when my Violet Patches died , I did not want another cat ,no cat would replace her but then came a little kitten needing a home, I did not want to love her but she wiggled herself into my heart and now there is Eve Snuggles to play with my old old cat Pearl Smudges ..
