deep
And you say you're NOT a Poet
How could you say this...I think this is a wonderful poem and the flow is awesome..
You've brought out some deep truth in this piece..that I don't think a lot of people are aware of.

the handmaid of the holy one
Ah a shaped poem , a pen , a handmaid of the only one
that inspires , -
When I read this Hebrews 12:2 jumped to mind - though not exactly what you are saying here, it is one of my favorite verses. "Fixing our eyes on Jesus the author and perfector of faith..."
The depth of your spirituality really shines out in this.
And I really agree with your comments above - God did create it all and he gave us as humans the free will to make choices.
I am glad you sent me back to these today - I think I needed a good dose of this!

simplicity to present the sublime

Ah, my dear Yem, S/he is the Maker of All: the silly and sublime; dark & light; "meat" & "sweet"
The All is One

You are a Minimalist!
So you say "Our" maker. And I only question you here: How can he that gives you then pen, also allow me to commit such travesties?
My comment reminds me (like how I comment on my comment in your comment area?) of that famous Blake poem "The Tiger" the line about how did He who made you, make me. Maybe it was Dr. Seuss.
Anyway (I use that in, I think 58.3% of comments)
Anyway (58.4%) there certainly is an uplifting quality (I stole that from someone above) to this poem.. -
Thank you, Whisper!

Spiritually uplifting, in a simplistic and effective package...
Kudos... -
Exquisite
Well, dear Gennelle, I thought you were sending me to another poet; but, now I see what you were doing. And, as I mentioned, I so agree that our awesome Lord is the great poet! This also reminds me of my counseling profession and the first thing I tell anyone who comes to me: God is the great psychiatrist, for no one truly heals emotionally unless they have Him in the equation. He's also the great physician... I could go on and on. LOL!
As for this poem, dear one, it is excellent and exquisite. I still say you are very talented. After all, any talent we might have IS that of God and we but tap into merely a drop in comparison to the whole bucket.
Lots of love and hugs, BonnieQ

This is indeed a good poem, I like the way you centered it too.

Stunning TRUTH
I agree with your Penn
All songs arrive from the one source
The divines’ minds eye
Within the wings of lyre harps singing thru chariots in the skies
Inside a dark light star forever where you are

You were taught well how to breathe life in a poem G.
Very nice, I applaud your understanding of procreation.

I love this poem. I think it is an awesome tribute to the Creator. So few people recognize that we exist and do what we do only because He wills it to be so. I've been struggling lately with letting to of my worries and fears and trusting in Him and this poem just seemed to be another illustration of His hand stirring my life. Thanks for sharing this poem. It reminds me to be thankful that He allows me to write. Great poem. zee

Wonderful poem and such creative style! Yes, in Him the circle is complete - and where our circles were broken...He's the ONE that draws the healing circle... Your "simple pen" produce beauty and wholeness!
-
The Circle - completed and True, and Ultimate Poet of Beginning and End-beginning. He uses no language; He uses no pen; He IS.
Thank you.

~For My Poet ,,I agree with Bill >>absolutely lovely ,, well done my freind ..I talk to the creator every morning at the river ,,then I pray for peace ,,knowing peace comes from the depths of the forest ~ but no anwser comes back to me..For he is silent and "he" has nothing to say when the sun goes down.Hearts grow brittle ,, not I ,,nor do we weaken our hearts till the matter is resolved ..I missed you ,,((smiles )) from the depths of the forest ,,peace ~ your pal Skinwalker

Wonderful
Hi Gennelle
That is absolutely wonderful. You have really done a wonderful job and sent a beautiful message. The style is growing on me fast as well. Without His creative hand, we would not be nor would we then be able to read or hear of His glorious plan for us. Thank you for such a wonderful write. Bill -
Concise!
I like the humility that disclaims all credit for the invention! We are all just servants, if we see it that way; for me, it is better. This is a comforting idea, that we are all held lovingly in the hands of the great One.

Thank you, Blush Since all Scripture, in all religions, is written as poetry, songs and verse...it seemed fitting that the Word, the Creator of All be acknowledged as the Real Poet...
Love & Light,

This poem has feeling and depth. He is the poet, we are His instrument. Absolutely a great write!

Wow, I like this. =) It is interesting to think of the Maker that way, as a poet. He's been compared to many other things, why not a poet? poiein - that is very cool. I like the style you used to make the pen, and I think the last lines end well - "the One that is." Good work.
