my gracious lord

Missing image
dear lord, please accept my prayers.
you are the only resolution and the only joy,
truly, in my life, right now.

father, thank you for being my burning amber salvation,
i say with true intensity.
you are majestic, your help invaluable.

lord you are my best friend,
you walked in when others walked out, i love ya.
thank you for your son jesus christ.

who died as bravely as a lion,
upon the cross.
let glory, be yours, kind father.

i am a snowglobe, naive, staggering;
lord you give me hope, with every tree and flower.
bless you for your church, with it's colourful stained glass.

i want you forever, i see you in others;
i hear your blessed words.
i touch your audacious, gracious heart.

my soul, is, leaping like laymen,
i pray a million prayers.
lord please sneak me barefoot into heaven.

i am a sleepy hammock,
tied to you, in bond and deed.
i am as proud as a prince.

respect is yours my lord,
i stoop in eager prayer,
i love you father, blessed be thy name.

Author notes

i used the line: you are the only resolution and the only joy.

this poem was a brave step for me, as an artist i have bared my soul to the world, and for the most part feel a lot cleansed for it.

thank you for this contest.

    wow, i like how you based your poem on one particular line and the subject is somewhat outside of the box, which is what makes your poem so unique from the other entries! good luck and thank you for entering my contest!
