The Path

A lighted candle shows the way of the true path
After the storms of life have caused an aftermath
Pride while valiant is the root of destruction
A careless and foolish mind accepts assumption

Constrictive and blocking oneself from harm creates a cold heart
Block by block losing the fear; trusting and loving sends a spark
When you feel your spirit and soul in line with His plan
You know that it is a farce to fear man

In the darkness He is the light for us to all see
Isn't it bliss, with all that I've thought, He could choose me?

† Hey Lucinda, I Truly Like The Light I Find Throughout This Wonderful Painting. A Lot Of Wisdom And Assumptions Yes, Are For The Birds So To Speak ? Nothing Wise In Grasping Things Such As They. Fear, Again I Find A Bullseye Dead On Truth Amid Your Understanding. This Sign Of Perdition Unto Some ? Blindness Be It To Others ? Bliss And Choosing Your Priceless Heart I Would Add, Don't Ever Doubt Nor Let Go ˜ Excellent Poem, Which Deserves To Be Favoured With It's Bows In Light * Love, John

Quite right & true here. Choose your path wisely, without impulsiveness. Be sure to fix "choice" to "choose". :) Otherwise, awesome poem!
