PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I was once told never to trust a night veiled by

the black of the moon

even now at twenty plus three

that's a warning I won't be forgetting none too soon

if you find yourself getting sucked into the night's

dark and insipid greed

my prayers are with you and I wish you God's own speed

some associate the lurking of the night with evil's

nefarious expectations

but one doesn't have to be a hard line Bible cracker

to pick up on the future's last chapter marked strangely

enough 'Revelations'

but I'm not really all that afraid

I feel my grandmother waiting patiently for me on the

other side and she won't be too thrilled if she finds

I've been delayed

these feelings I carry are as sure footed as they

are handsome

for such love has no limit to its ransom

when my time comes

my ticket to ride

I feel will have been fully paid

a stronger foundation of firmer beliefs

I have worked long and hard for and now can say are

magnificently made

as long as you love and believe in God

I believe he stays with you for the duration

in his love's loving warmth and omnipotence

I find endless streamers of unconditional salvation

fate and one's destiny are casual concepts I'm not

on the whole so sure about

to find true inner peace within yourself

of our Lord and his plans you must never doubt

love is not real love if you have to long periods

without

when you feel inferior in reference to love

in the eyes of others remember only one can cover you

and that's God

I like to think of him as each of us' personal and

emotional clout...........\
