Higher Goals

 

 

 

Whisper softly when winds blow

Walking down streets so slow

 

Carry love within our hearts

Do not allow fear to start

 

Bask in sunlight's gleaming glow

Painting pictures as we go

 

Stealing moments trapped through time

Singing out this cosmic rhyme

 

Desperation builds on a soulful mind

Heartaches erupt making us blind

 

Turmoil, panic, count the cost

Leaving people mainly lost

 

Sin like cancer grows too fast

Ripple effect, lots have been cast

 

Tranquility calms aching souls

Reaching up for higher goals

 

Heaven bound angel wings

God bestows crowns and golden rings

 

Jesus, hold my hand

Into Your promise land

Beautiful poem. I particularly like the images you build while staying true to the constraints of the contest.

Word Count = 100 exactly, great job
Word Repeats = 2; your, fear - If you adjust these two, you will have a perfect entry.

Thank you for your participation in the 100 Word - Rhyme (1) contest!
