where ever the fly fishing is good

With my arms held tight
in the clutch of your love.
You carried me thru
the depths of despair
of the life of hell
I was living in.
If it weren't for your mercy
raining down on me.
Death would have become me.
Instead when the world went out
you came in.
Just to say
you still wanted me.
Thru the smoke and ashes
a hand extended to me.
You rose me up
and introduced me
to that thing called love.
When I meet a man
named Compassion.
Though I still stumble
his hand is still in mine.
For in the shadow of your wings
I have found my refuge.
You taught my hands to war,
my heart to love
and my knees
the escence of humbleness.
When I took my first steps
into that of my own destiny.
You gave me a gift.
A heart shapped token
of promise.
Flowing in fine golden wires
and two steel blue sapphires
to adorn.
On the inside
of the heart
you scribbed the letters
K LEW.
Now how do
I began to
thank you
for you
know who.

If it weren't for your mercy
raining down on me.
Death would have become me.

not sure  "for you know who" is..but it's a beautiful poem

Martie, gentlespirit,theLoner23, and susan glad you all could take a stroll thru my tumble of heart felt words.

Though it has never stepped past fear
would you still accept my heart
knowing that it is all I have to give.
