Notes About The Poem

Sunset Spirit

Sunset Spirit

Close your eyes, 
and stop thinking. 
Take a moment...
breathe.
God is already beside you. 
He has always been there. 
It is you, 
that must slow down. 

Stop rushing in and out, 
back and forth, 
where you believe you are to go. 
You have gone, 
passed the point you meant too. 

The chairs in the room, 
are full of angels. 
They have come to listen...
to all sing. 
Those that can not, 
will mouth the words, 
and still, it will be,
beautiful unto Him, 
raised in praise faithfully, 
if silently.

The heart of all gathered, 
holding the ends of strings...
knotted and crisscrossed, 
scoring and underscoring the importance, 
of faith, seen and unseen, 
but always felt, 
and forever real.

I keeping letting go, and my passengers in the car, start screaming... I really don't get it. Being saved is very peaceful. God give you a fun day. Ann

Beautifully penned, Ann. Can't decide whether you're a poet or a saint. Maybe both! Bravo! Warm wishes, Gershon
