A Poem by light and ashes
"

Oh, forgive me, God. I am but a fool.

"
My God, have mercy upon me. I am just a sinner. A fragile human being. 
I am rocked by the Ocean. My soul is tossed by the winds and the waves.
Please be patient with me.

Thank you, Rock and Roll Cowboy, that means a lot to me.
I’m reading this while listening to waves arguing with each other in the wind. Your poem became the lyrics to the song of the ocean. The waves may be strong, but like Peter, we are capable to rise above the storm when our focus is where it’s meant to be.

Thank you so much, Will.
Long known prayers are the more modern comfort blankets many people need at times. Your prayer asks for forgiveness yet, in God's eyes, only mistakes happen - not sin.. Your whispered words will be heard because tis said insist that that is why space infinite exists. Patience to write, patience to be heard,, now shared by those who understand.

A beautiful prayer. Most of us at sometime or other find ourselves in stormy situations. I hope your prayers are answered and you find peace dear poet.
