The lovely Helene of Willow Poetry has challenged us with “What do you See?”.  On your own blog, you may write a poem, haiku, tanka or short story that represents what you see or feel within you, then create a pingback to the original post..  More info can be found in the link below.


Spirit

Remains faceless

In a world so Godless

Praying for man’s absolution

Shattered

As squirrels, they’re always quite skeptical
That the oak tree is their own receptacle
Praying for acorns aplenty, never believing it empty
This always creates such a spectacle

But the acorns knew, without a doubt
Told what the big old tree’s about
Refusing to believe, the squirrels did leave
Now the acorns just sit there and pout

I wrote this when my daughter, Alyssa, was in the hospital.  It was such a helpless feeling.  One I hope you never have to experience.  I thank God every day that she is okay….He listens, even when you think He’s not…always have faith.

How can I take away your pain?

I watch, as your color begins to drain

Clenching my chest to bring it to me

Taking the horror you feel and setting you free

Praying to God, in Heaven above

Knowing he hears me, embraces with love

Reminding me always, this is part of his plan

As he holds you close, in his loving hands
