“The Kingdom Of God is inside you, and all around you…”

Purity in form of the snow-white dove-
Innocence in eyes of a doubtless child,
Consideration in outstretched palm-
Wisdom in the unwavering mind…

“I’m not in a house made of wood nor stone…”

No building of grandness or rubble-
Will ever influence the heart of God.
Walls cannot create, nor dictate-
The pureness of your believing soul…

“Split a piece of wood, and I’ll be there…”

That aching wound begging release-
On bending knee…believe in me.
An open heart will reprimand-
Of fallen strength, and fallen man…

“Lift a stone, and there you’ll find me…”

Awaiting patiently, Timelessly-
Forgiveness…you shall see.
Come raw and open to me-
No longer shall you grieve…



 Open arms can be the most fragile in the world...

This is inspiring.
Lovely thoughts, lovely feelings.
There is a serenity in you that
is refreshing to see.   KARMA
Love ya'

Well hun, you certainly bring justice to the unjustified passage.  Your last stanza speaks very loudly, here.  I know how much this piece meant to you - and I think you've done wonderful with it.  Indeed, "Walls cannot create, nor dictate."

This is fantastic! I love it, I love it. Please if you would, when this falls to back pages, have Michael move into spiritual. I'd very much appreciate it, if you'd share with them also.

devina...girl this is AWESOME...
this is SO perfect.
WOW...it just glows...
this is one you should be real proud of!!
take care, jm

 ...when you walked into the room, I saw their faces,
you made it feel like time was standing still...and I felt fascination...
then you turned and smiled in my direction...
and my heart...gave me away.

Beautifully written, and in the spirit of the approaching season.
Shows another demension of your incredible writing talent.  
May have penned a masterpiece here, it touches the heart, mind, and soul.

       Come raw and open to me"
