Notes About The Poem

The Winding Highway

The Winding Highway
It’s a long and winding highway that’s leading one to Heaven’s door But worth all the twists and the turns afore reaching celestial shore. Quote - Poets own
Spiritual health is one's wealth Without God one's world falls apart Those who deny Him become lost And don't see the light for the dark. What’s good for the spirit is when One works hard to sustain wellness To love with wondrous work of art Eyes, voice and heart reveal it best. There’s bound to be times when it’s tough Whatever disasters may do Put a smile on your face with grace And walk with God’s yoke upon you. Enjoy God's gifts along the way What's meant for you will come to you Whatever is to be will be Life is a magnificent whoo. There'll be a welcome in Heaven When your life's walkathon is done Waiting patiently there for you Will be the Holy Three in One. * * *

Thank you Alexis, I won’t have a nice day till I get my husband back, he’s still fighting for his life in intensive care. So much is happening to him, even had a heart attack whilst in hospital, his heart is still causing major concerns along with his blood pressure and other traumatic occurrences. Belle
