Affliction

If I could heal you
with the laying on of hands
I would lay these hands
of a lost prophet upon you

If I could heal you
by finding the finest healers
I would recruit them
in the manner of the martyrs

My love for you
fires from the center of my soul
and you have become an inextinguishable
eternal flame

Your affliction is a sign
your infirmity a trial

And God knows there is no compromise
for the prayers of a righteous man

"If at first an idea is not absurd, there is no hope for it."
Albert Einstein

coyote,

I appreciate your humility that you express in this poem and I can feel the longing in your words for healing and I do believe as you have stated in another posting that we "must call upon the Son of Man" for it truly is He who heals us from all of our infirmities. I do humbly pray and believe with you, my poet friend, for your son's complete healing and restoration and to Jesus who has all Power we give all the Glory and Honor. God Bless you and Keep you, my friend. In Jesus Name. Amen.
