Love's Patience

journey begun
tenderness
flows white mirages
of loneliness
carved into stone

devoured
like torrents defacing beauty
mutilation
spoils composure

but Love’s Peace
transforms

and fear and guilt
and hatred
are wiped
as Water cleanses
like stream of soft touch
on feel of dry parch

patient kindness
humble offering
joyous delight

enfold
into manifestations
of hope
and trust
and knowing

His Love maketh us whole …

    Good contrast of word describing the pain is a world void of love and how love brings healing and hope to that pain.

    Lovely Words

    This was beautiful my friend. Love is many things and when it is patient and it can wait and endure many things. A lovely poem with stunning imagery. Your words are beautiful. Bless you. Take care, Sandy

    "but Love’s Peace

    this is beautiful, Frans. I loved the depth of spirituality here - it's both divine and earthy - just as love is. and now you have me thinking of one of my favourite songs "Love changes everything"...this is exactly what you've achieved here through your words - that sense of wholeness.

    Your words are so true my friend. He and He alone can make us whole. Even when we lose our way He is there to guide us with a tap on the shoulder. Thank you for sharing. This really uplifted me on a sad day. Bless you. Sandy

    Simply the wondrous secret of Love ...

    Divine ... "it keeps no record of the wrongs" ... Within His Love, all woundedness and negative outcomes are turned around ... And there will be Light and Life, and everflowing Living Water.



    Good luck in the contest, Poet. A deep and spiritually healing poem of upliftment, hope and faith.

    Love
    Myra
