Seeking I climbed the highest peak to see If I could glimpse eternity, But clouds obscured the mighty dome We like to think is Heaven's home. I swam the deepest sea to find Affinity with piscine kind, But wind and wave drove me ashore Each time I wanted to explore. I ventured into labyrinths, old, Where air is dank and wet and cold. Where every passage that I found, Led me deeper underground. I struggled in this world apart, But never found the earth's great heart. I soared in space on man-made wings To reach the stars, to find the things That are mysterious and rare, But I found no answers there And after years of seeking out, To find what life is all about, Two things emerged, we need God's love. Our treasure waits for us above! Betty Lou Hebert Published in "America's Best Writer's 2002" by Drury's Publishing [This message has been edited by Trillium (10-24-2002 04:20 PM).] |

 (smiles) And travel no further, for the answer is always right there wherever you are, for He loves us all and whenever, wherever, however, His love will never fail us! (big hugggssssss) This s a wonderfully contemplative poem, sweet friend, I went through the same experience and had a great deal of salt demand for the wounds I was afflicted with, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Betty, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
