I Cannot Expect to See a Wonder


A child soul from purgatory
Called to me from eternity,
And asked me in a dialect
That had the power to connect
Eden and hell...
''My poetess sister, the child ask,
Why is your soul sorrowing;
Why are you not singing your songs?
Be happy and full of joy,
Soon it will be spring.''

''I don't know why,-
I told the spirit,-
There is much trouble in my heart
And my soul is in torment and thunder:
I cannot expect to see a wonder-
Without God
I am blind...

    Amazing....

    So many feel in the dark of many things,
    just know you're not alone soaring upon angel wings.
    You bless so many in all you do and say,
    for no-one soul can take it all away...
    Intertwined we can thread a blissful truth,
    and pray along the way of faithful youth...
    But no matter what each day brings our way,
    we have each-other to love and cherish always.

    Profoundly deep

    Thought provoking - excellent.
    My favorite is the last part.''I don't know why,-
    I told the spirit,-
    There is much trouble in my heart
    And my soul is in torment and thunder:
    I cannot expect to see a wonder-
    Without God
    I am blind...
    All the best in the contest.

    Sincerely,
    Cheryl

    Depth and Soul

    You write with great depth yet with clarity and wonderful flow. Indeed, we may expect to be tormented, if we do not keep our hearts and minds focused upon God and His Christ. It is when we are unfocused that Satan rushes in to turn our lives into chaos and pain. Your last line made that point quite succinctly.

    Love in Christ, BonnieQ

    Very good

    Did you hear we are not to be called hillbillies no more.To be politicly correct we are bluegrass Americans.I loved that song.Words like love and truth and goodness,Words like till death we must part Are like words from a poets pen

    My gal, your mind is truly deep & filled with the need to know more. Interesting I would say. But you know the Cathers thought our souls, from the God of good, was trapped in our body, by the God of Evil, until we truly found that knowledge.
