Notes About The Poem

Star of Hope

Holy guide
invite me to abide
in safe pasture grasses like a lamb,

or like a baby swaddled safely in her pram,
holy guide your beauty is a bright anagram
of love and I never have to grope

in darkness, help me cope
star of hope.

Hello Chetta, Congrats on POTD! It sounds like you've found a source of comfort that makes the big, scary parts of life feel manageable, almost like being cradled. It's a wonderful thing to know exactly where your strength lies when things get rough. Jesus is the reason! Amen! Autumn Blessings, Chetta, Daniel
