Deep in the heart

0 posted 2006-08-14 12:32 PM



there were good moments
though too few and far between
to shore foundation

indifference reigns
silence screams in agony
words fall deaf to ear

divorce no option
no biblical precedence
no authority

uncomfortable
the soul craves salving presence
inconsolable

Christ the salvation
the emotional outlet
remains in the pen

but believe in love
love is THE reality
the greatest of gifts

therefore you will love
and you will write about love
‘til your pen is stilled

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.

Sad poem. This is why I wrote the two I had to write. Love should be fun, laughter and sharing the good things. best to you, martyjo

Thanx for the sigh.  I could use a hug, too

martyjo ~
Sad?
Ya think so?
Kinda depends how you view it I guess.  
If it made you think, then I did good

swells of space
shall never drift apart
true hearts that learn to ride
love's roughest waves,
but shall capsize swiftly
when floating foul flotsam and jetsom

silent indifference lies

heart hugs to you, loper

here is the hope of it:



but believe in love
love is THE reality
the greatest of gifts


And within this hope,
lies the seed;

and His tears
will still reap
a bounty.

Well done, Poet.

Midniteswun ~
Your replies are NOT supposed to be better than my offering ... but I forgive you

The Lady ~
Then I did good!  Thank you

Sunshine ~
As the Tall Texan scuffs his boot toe in the dust he replies, "Thank you, ma'am!"

Loper~

Believing in love
Stretching reaches of the heart
In softest surround~


**You inspire others so easily**
Thank you~
