The last of fading light slips in my room To cast its shadows long across the floor The sun it seems is bowing to the gloom Of looming painful night forevermore. For beacon’s light I search the lonely shore Horizon scan for any glimpse at all The pain from out my soul begins to pour As crashing waves of grief cause me to fall. My heart courageous beats yet can’t forestall The ravages this storm shall surely wreak In youth I thought I’d rise above the pall Of suffering, enshrouded days so bleak. Yet agony, at last, I call you friend For to His side you’ve led me in the end. Denise And slight is the sting of his trouble Whose winnings are less than his worth; For he who is honest is noble, Whatever his fortunes or birth.~~~Alice Cary, ~Nobility~ |

Denise this is so familiar, I too have found Him only through alot of pain. It was about the time I couldn't stand any more and surrendered that He took over. Great poem! 02 |

I like the fact that "He maketh His light to SHINE out of the darkness." I sympathize with you for the troubles which you must face, but I also rejoice with you, as it brings you closer to Him. God bless you Friend, David "Our Creativity points to a Higher Creator--we couldn't have just happened, and for what ability we may possess--to God be the glory." -dlw- |
