CHURCH OF THE HEART

CHURCH OF THE HEART

A Poem by R J Askew
"

I, like many, am not part of any organised religion, but this does not mean that I do not have spiritual feelings ..

"

 

CHURCH OF THE HEART

..

I know that you are here with me

At one in this wellspring of hope

We are a universal beat

Made one in our brief consciousness

We feel our Nature's full alive

In us she sees herself to be

We are her eyes in us she is

Alive! We are alive in this!

We are the church of human hearts

A-beating true, a-beating true

We are made one in this design

By Nature made to give new love

We live by love in love alive

You are for ever .. in this heart

..

Belief in a higher hand is part of our genetic makeup, religion is just add on engineering. T

You are a very good writer talented as well. I like what you have to say here.

I'm with you. Although I believe in God, I'm much more spiritual than religious, and don't rule out all the other possibilities/ideas that exist. To be one in our hearts is surely a magnificent thing.

' We are made one in this design ~ By Nature made to give new love ~ We live by love in love alive ~ You are for ever .. in this heart.'

You write with heart, always have.. tis different from other peoples maybe but, always has the reality of whatever theme you use. 'We are alive in this!' Wonderful use of the spill of red.
