[hometext] => This is a ''reimagined'' version of a poem I did 4 years ago.
[bodytext] => Through times of unexplained grief and sorrow Of joy and ecstatic happiness I feel blessed Because God is there We're as close as crossed fingers Wrapped around each other like the love that we share And as bottomless as a pit We are tighter than the glove OJ couldn't fit Like pages in a closed book Book ended by the breath of his being Like lashes on eyes closed but still seeing Or like a secret on the closed lips of an open truth He is closer to me that I am to you He holds me like a tree holds leaves in the spring Or how the ground does in the fall And through it all he keeps me near his chest So that I may hear the true heart of existence And with no resistance I catch up with the rythym Because it beats a path to where salvation is given We are intermingled like mixed children Betwixt black and white walls rolling as I look above And so entrenched within me Are His blessings and love That His spirit writes sermons preached in my brain And I got the Holy Ghost running throughout my viens Causing keyboard strokes to run crimson Whispering words that radiate through my DNA And I can say We are close . . . Not because you cant see Him But becasue I can And I walk with The Lord My soul . . . in His hands And I ask is… How close are you?

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
