The Great White Shield

Held prisoner under His Stars, I have fallen under the shadows of THE “Great White Shield”. At a distance, those shimmering lights covered over me. Built on THE highest plains, I stand parallel even when His rains come down. My wall stands tall as my fate is promised and sealed. I see my passage through time as I hold sturdy to my only God given ground. I am all that I know I can ever be. Confined by a little world where all that there is has been lost or found, My bleeding wall holds my “ ALMIGHTY’S Great Armored White Shield“. Balanced with time even when His rains are pouring down! It stands to serve and to protect the best of the living me. Layer by layer it builds with the strength it has lost or found. For, I am all that is genuinely real. Conditioned by my endurance, His Stars my eyes still can see. Ruling the way that I move, His existence is wrapped tightly and I abound. Parallel on His plains, a sturdy wall I did gradually help Him build. My wall protects the only person inside of me. I secure my only ground as I hold onto His “Great White Shield”. I am all that I have ever truly found. When the rains pour down on me, I stand atop of all His battled ground. When I am all with my realest deal, I am all that can or will be found. When I am all that I know I can ever be, I carry a strength that alone I can build. I am the carrier of my Almighty’s Great White Shield”. ®Registered: 1998 Ann Rich
