Keep Walking

Walking down mountain,
my children spotted a cub;
"Look!  A baby wolf!"

Aware of her gaze,
I said, "I know mother's near...
Stay close! Keep walking!"

Through a certain fear,
we mimicked wolf's behavior
and walked on cautious.

We are beheld too
in our earthly habitat;
"We're children of God!"

Like by alpha wolf,
our protection's always near
as bygones scavenge...

In our innocence
knowing nothing will hurt us,
walking close to Him.


-Lighthouse Bob

This was wonderful, Bob!!  Then again, I am a sucker for wolf poems.  LOL.  Very nicely written.  

All writing comes
by the grace of God.

Lone Wolf,

When I was writing this poem, I was thinking how nice it would be if Lone Wolf happened to read this.... and then you were the first to reply.... How strange?  Perhaps someone else was thinking of you also?  God Bless You, Bob <><

Our walk certainly does feel safer with Him, no matter how far down the road we are.  Nice analagy.  Thanks for sharing.

We are always safe if we're walking with God.  At least our souls are.  Thank you Bob.  Joyce
