Go forth my soul and spread the word Of His great grace; of second birth; Decreed for all; so few have heard So shout my soul throughout the earth. Longs so each soul for joy sublime; Opines each heart for peace divine; Viewed, lo, by some as wasted time; Expressed for all - His grand design. Denise And slight is the sting of his trouble Whose winnings are less than his worth; For he who is honest is noble, Whatever his fortunes or birth.~~~Alice Cary, ~Nobility~ |

Denise, This is a wonderful acrostics with a beautiful message-might it be considered today as "GOD's VALENTINE"-from the Father and the Very Epitomy of Love? As his spokesperson you have done fine here. David "Our Creativity points to a Higher Creator--we couldn't have just happened, and for what ability we may possess--to God be the glory." -dlw- |

Thank you, Janet Marie! I'm glad you liked it! I have been posting some of my older ones since I am once again in serious writer's block  Also, due to computer problems I have fallen way behind in reading and responding to others' poems, so I'm afraid I'm not doing too much encouraging at the moment either But thank you for your lovely comments! You made me smile! Denise |

Thank you, Denise for sharing with us this almost Davidian song of praise and joy! Not only did you give us a touching message, but you also managed to put into such appealing form by your deft use of rhyme and meter. It really sings! Being a first generation older immigrant, I'm still trying to improve my English rhyming vocabulary and phraseology, and am learning much from your poetry. Willem Willem |

Amen Denise...He does have a grand design I know. Maybe if I exercise a little patience I will see what God ahas intended for me all along. I'm sure I fit into that plan of His somewhere, I just can't wait to find out how & where. The one thing I do know - is it starts NOW! Beautiful acrostic btw - sorry for babbling on about myself.
