His Well-Spring
~ Linda L. Dowd ~

Crystal-clear waters,
Cascading from His Well-Spring,
Purify my soul.
I am One with Universe.
I find peace within myself.

Nancy ~

You should know by now what a thrill it is for me whenever you deem one of my poems a keeper! Thank you!

I just changed the font colour. The blue was too bright and not very calming! lol

May the waters of His Well-Spring, heal you.

Have a pleasand evening!

Tom ~

I appreciate your appreciation! I truly love looking for paintings on the net to fit my words. It can be somewhat time-consuming, but it is a labour of love. At times I use my own water colour paintings and digital art.

This is the rare post where I saw the painting and then wrote the poem. I felt a cleansing energy wash over me as I looked at it and was I instantly put at peace.

Love & Light,
Linda

I can well imagine that you are feeling drained and fatigued. I have been praying that all will turn out well ~ and I do believe that it will.

Jo, your loving and thoughtful replies are always appreciated! ~ and muchly!

Keep the faith, my friend! God and His angels will make sure that all will eventually be made well!

I am pleased that you think so! I would give credit to the artist, but s/he is unknown.

I hope all is well with you, my absentee friend! lol I've missed you!

Giving you a big, warm hug,

I fell in love with that painting as soon as I saw it. Unfortunately the name of the artist is unknown or I would most definitely have named him or her.

I was moved to write this poem as soon as I saw the painting!

Huggos con mucho luvvos,
Linda
