Blessed
"Give more than you take… live as if it is your last day and love fully, with each breath… and intentionally, with a love that God will assuredly bless" – Quote by Poet
Listen to the sound
Of your heart’s yearning
Listen to it pound
A flame of light burning
Grace calls through the wind
Singing praises on a breath of hope
Silencing the shadows, resigned
To erasing the pain so hearts cope
Laughter falls from the soul
Who dreams, believes and feels
Brighter than those who console
With joy that kindness reveals
Songs of inspiration fall gently
On tender hearts who love freely
Music bleeding affections contently
Warming spirits with passion ideally
Hues of carefully designed prayers
Arouse blessings that fall down from God
Sweet miracles of serenity which shares
Brilliant insights from the One we applaud
Creativity lights up the life who knows
His way is always the best way to go
Lighting the mind with poetry and prose
Shaped by those who feel His love flow
With my heart and mind brought alive
By the fiery flames from His gift
Of grace that abides and will revive
Tenderness born of joy which will lift
My philosophy is a blend of faith
Hope and love that comes from above
Brought to life by the word He saith
In blessedness we can barely speak of
With all my heart, mind and soul
I long to contribute to this earth
A smile, a thought, a light – beyond control
Trembling with wonder like the virgin birth
With all of me, I blow a kiss to the sun
Who beckons me to see and receive
Love on the air, in the seas and in the Son
Who brings new life to those who believe
