4720 God on Paper 18 December 2005 In eyes of tears her words wept That innocence so real From a heartbeat of love time stood still in her mercy Breathless to her appeal Like God on paper this imprint of golden sun Each finger tip to caress every rose petal to back peal Her lips spoken to speak her in undoing nothing to harm solid gold - neither a rock to steel Like cards to colour in given in hope to endure These words toward heaven in an angel of saintly deal Treasure of dust swept away to sweat of sleepless nights to seal “Having many things to write unto you, I would not write with paper and ink: but I trust to come unto you, and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.” 2 John 1: 12 KJV © 2006 Christopher W Herbert (a New Zealand Poet) a poet who cares |

What else can I say...u r great...I dont understand scripture poems that well, but your abrasive yet free words help to set a mood that is extremely hard to reach in any writing, especially poems, because of flow. Great job...Elevation is the Key Return the favor on Swear to God "How vain it is to sit down and write when u have not stood up to live" |

disregard the scripture quote and only relate that to the poem, if so inclined, once the poem is read. A footnote is a footnote and nothing more. a poet who cares |

The way your words touched me were to bring tears to my eyes for the words that have not been spoken from my soul in a long time....My eyes and thoughts turn upward once more drawn to a love I don't fully understand....Thank you for the thoughts and feelings your words drew from me...strange how tonight I needed to hear such words even if they are not ment the way I have taken them...*big hugs* |
