What Lasts
He is the lasting moment, the lifelong promise, the unwavering honesty of a heart who knows Him as their destiny ~ quote by poet
Silhouettes, in virgin skies
Drifting quietly, soft as the music
Coloring the winds
In crooning remedies,
Virtual healing, so many feelings
Blessings to abide, like the melodies,
So light, falling heavy on the soul,
Who hears the storms blow,
Hope that consoles, miracles so alive,
They stir the senses to provide…
Eloquent musings, timid
Pieces of yesterday,
Visions of a destiny, fires
Blazing victorious, raging like the seas,
Who’ve forgotten the fight,
When melancholy brings its grief
To the center of the soul,
Breathing gentleness through those
Who know – always know…
Shadows, playing softly,
Along the edges of a smile,
Hesitant, yet more alive
Than any poetic promise, any verse
Stanzas broken by desire,
Mild like the milky moon, welcoming
Dreams to a solace,
Quieting all the shame that comes
To those who refuse to see beyond
The laughing songs of heartstrings,
Invented by artists who can see…
Messages, wisdoms so clever,
Fleeing the destinies of darkness,
Amazing as the graceful
Glow of a burning insight into beautiful,
Aware of the colors, the hues
Of silence, solitude – sensations
Astute, like the autumn’s rustling serenity,
Brave, like the cobalt mystery,
Joyful, like the rich, crisp springtime,
Collected on the moments, sighing…
Can I ever know what it is to feel,
The music that silences every fear,
The poetry that carves its name so clear,
The promise of a light so alive, so near…
Can I ever know this lingering still,
Softly lifting my heart with a prayer,
Resting on the love that leaves its kiss,
Poignant like the sunlight’s reassurance,
Emotive as a trembling starlight glowing,
Always and forever…
Listening to the One who ignites hearts,
Kindles souls to a believing that never doubts,
Explodes with a love that will ever after last!
