Tell Me

Tell Me

A Poem by KAREN
"

Getting strength from above!

"

Tell me father,

of my splendor you so carefully molded.

Let me hear your knowledge and wisdom,

giving me assurance that you're not done with me.

Breathe on me blessings of peace.

 

Tell me father,

that my face is blossoming into something sweet and tender.

My laughter is like billows of music filling your ears.

bestow  upon me your comfort when I am weak and weary.

Inspire me to always look to you for guidance.

 

tell me father,

of your immortal love, that it last forever,

and my love for you brightly beams.

Let your voice be  an never ending whisper in my ear,

filling me with your precious strength.

 

Tell me father,

that we are like eagle wings,

soaring high above the earth.

Help me leave a trail of your friendship where ever I go,

filling people's path with your glorious glow.

 

Tell me father,

life's swiftly passing years have been to your liking.

Even though I've had some dark hours

your mercy is new each day.

How excellent is your loving kindness!

 

Tell me father,

once again about heaven and the streets of gold,

and the crown you're keeping safe for me until my time comes.

Wash me in your abundance of love.

Keep me safe for all eternity.

Amen

What a lovely, prayerfull poem.....quite beautiful. My favorite verse is,
"Tell me father,
that we are like eagle wings,
soaring high above the earth.
help me leave a trail of your friendship where ever I go,
filling people's path with your glorious glow."

There's one little grammatical error in the next verse. The line should be, "life's swift passing years have been to your liking."
Great job with this poem!

I like the feel and emotion in your words. The repetition made the desire stronger to attest the appreciation of love and protection. A outstanding poem of faith and hope.

It struck me, that the first few stanza of this piece could have the duality to the meaning of Father... isn't funny that we follow a father's love in blind devotion.. both our earthly father, and the one greater, Heavenly Father.. Super job! Keep up the nice work! I enjoyed this so much!!
