It is as if....
A soft downy feather
from the wing of a pure white dove
has floated gently down from heaven,
blown by His Graceful Breath,
directly to my inner most being.

It can be called nothing less...
than a miracle.

The pain and betrayal in my life,
is horrendous.
To much for any one human to bear.

I had only one choice left..
so it seemed to me..
to surrender and give it all
into His loving care.

Circumstances have not changed.
My soul has.

Now His Promise is complete.

His burden is light,
and his Yoke easy!

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

Nicely written.  To have a place to place one's burden truly is miraculous, I agree.  -Bob

Oh, my, I shall echo the trilogy of replies! This is a lovely verse for one's sore eyes.

Powerful joy emanates!

Very enjoyable, Ellie.  I like this one quite a bit, well worded and skillfully constructed.  Another job well done.
I'm going to add this to my personal library.
