Notes About The Poem

repost from 2011 prompted by Mohan's contest theme

Unmasked

I see beyond today,
come closer..
hear what I say;
I see beyond your mask,
trust me..
it's all I ever ask;
I see beyond your pain,
be healed..
And live again;
I see beyond your cry, 
hold my hand..
I'll dry your eye;
I see beyond it all,
turn to me...
And walk tall.

Thanks Brian. Being a Christian played a big role when I wrote my book.

You have checked out quite a selection date wise Richard from my poetic development.This repost from 2011 shows a little of my move to an open style since those early days.The Holy Spirit is my usual prompt for my Christian verse and moments of awareness for my imagist output just seem to happen as is so tonspeak.Your comments are much appreciated.Stay creative
