My God Adored

With heart so full of love for You my Lord,
Your words I read and fill my empty soul.
I came in pain and You have made me whole.
On knees I bend with love in full accord.

For once I stood alone and unrestored,
And just as stallion watches over foal,
Your arms surround me with complete control,
And You my Lord are now my full reward.

The darkness I have hated and abhorred,
I sought to find a better life for me.
A path that would a better way afford.
And lead me to my God eternally.
Then I'll forever serve Him so adored.
And thank Him for His love to me so free.

Floria

floria, flower of my heart

I believe that you have just written a beautiful poem, very close to being a Sonnet. Did you know that? In any event I love your poetry, dear sister. And I love you, too. In Christ.

Thank you Newell, your compliments and praise give me the confidence to continue to write, No although sometimes I follow a form like with the villanelle. I just wrote this, I had read several like this in a poetry book and just followed the form, Did not know it was a sonnet, or "close " to a sonnet, I must look that form up. Thank you for all the encouragement. floria
