You Are Blessed

I called to the Lord and my voice, Echoed down Thy golden corridor. My sorrowful voice resonated, Ripples of painful airwaves, Across the divine exosphere. And in the midst of my darkness, Shadows mean the light is near. He came from His throne to me, His warmth touched my caramel skin. I was in the presence of the Lord And I spoke...to the most high. I asked what cannot be regained, His reply was: the stone, after it’s cast, The word, after it’s spoken...and time, after it’s gone. And He granted my request to bless the eyes, That read...this modest poem...
