PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

my lord is always unflinchingly there

even when I fail myself and him he still continues

to guide me and care

love like that knows no real barriers or bounds

can you hear just how serious that unveiled statement

sounds

who but myself can I blemish or blame for this falling

of grace

in my head the answers and the questions revolve

around each other in some drug induced version of the

steeplechase

two near separate beings find themselves pitted against

each other like the turtle and the hare

for such speakable means I find I have a definite

flair

my life has so far been relatively simple

but even I know that relatively can be quite

complicated

I never thought I could come this far with my

poetry

Imagine where I'd be if I had so much as anticipated

I'm not sure if I write through GOD or if he writes

through me

Either way though I suppose that's how he wants it to

be

I'm lucky, I'm versatile enough that my subjects I

can easily pick and choose

like a painter where I use different levels of tone

in my words he combines atmosphere and emotion

through the use of various hues

so I could be titled 'Painter of Words' I suppose one

day

yes, I think that's how I would like to always be

remembered

in just that mentioned way.............
