a better person...

Missing image
Oh God

when I was a young baby
I never envisioned of you
never intended to locate you

though, it was my mother
after me all the time
to make me to assimilate you

when she left this world
I discovered her in my core
as a fairy light

along the same
intents to identify you

making me a better person
by putting faith in you

Oh God...

Author notes

I am suggesting a new topic/ category for my self for which I am entering that is:

a faithful child trying to become a inspiring minister.

    The purity of this piece is startling. I like the power that was infused by using the same line to open and close the piece but my favorite stanza by far was:

    "when she left this world
    I discovered her in my core
    as a fairy light"

    Perhaps because it's my own personal feeling that we are never so close to God as when a loved one leaves this world or joins it. This is a beautiful poem submitted by a talented writer.

    Thank you for your entry & good luck

    Very interesting poem. I liked that it began and ended with the same line, it really incapsulated it and gives it a nice flow from beginning to end

    Very touching and meaningful



    (perhaps a greater connection with God comes with maturity)

    Discovering God, is a jorney within ones self, for the union man-God is implanted deep within each living creature in the Cosmos

    Reason been that all exist in Him, and He exists in all

    Though the perseption of God varies according to customs and beliefes

    all over the globe.

    the Ancient Greeks upon the Holy Island of Dilos Had many temples from different Nations

    thus accepting  and respecting all religions, understanding the spiritual grouth of different peoples according to their needs

    I am sure your dear mother was trying to awake that spiritual union between you and the Holy, thus helping you to become wholesome.

    I am glad you did.

    Enjoyed your write

    Well done.

    Lovely, Prabhu...When one soul has touched another there is always that indelible mark left. Even when the one has 'left', their touch is still so strongly felt...this is how we taste the eternal...And strive to be 'better'. This one reminded me of my own mother's touch, thank you. Peace always, Rhonda

    Faith in God creates a better humanity,
    to be aware that God is with us always, he knows our thoughts and our actions.
    lovely wise Mom.
