God@heaven.com

Faith stained fingertips print upon 'send,'
typed of trust in waiting, anticipating.

First email: no reply,
Second email: "user unknown,"
and, the third time: "undeliverable."

But, then again, I've always known this.

It's okay, God, really it is,
you're too busy, I understand.
So, I'll just hit 'delete'
as heart words weep a blank screen.

Intellectually I know that Canada is no better than any other country. Emotionally I KNOW that Canada is the best country in the world!

Wow...Melissa...this just aches off the page.
Big heart hugs to you, friend.

That was kinda sad. Can't relate, but it was a unique metaphor.

Sometimes He just chooses to reply in ways we don't expect. But I've got to admit, I've felt this way before, too...

This is really sweet. I know what you mean. Actually, I found it kind of funny in a way, it reminded me of "Bruce Almighty". Hope that doesn't offend, because it is a lovely write.

Having recently watched Jim Carrey's new movie...this has more than a poignant feeling...

I won't give the storyline away - that would not be fair - but it is decidedly disconcerting on both ends.

Excellent write, MelyBee

Man, I wish I had written this. This is very nicely done.

We see the light of those
Who find the world has passed them by
Too late to save a dream from growing cold...
