LIGHT

I couldn't sleep when my friend, Therra Weinberg, informed me of the arrival of her little miracle, Ms. Phoebe Faith, so I wrote this poem that very night to celebrate her arrival...she taught me about faith without even trying <3

'Phoebe' means 'Light'


Poem Artwork

 

Soft as a gentle breeze, she began her journey

Too quiet a heartbeat that fooled the unbelievers
Too humble an entrance yet Jesus entered Jerusalem on a donkey
But she was the daughter of a fighter and she was going to prove them all wrong
Little warrior princess without a crown
Little warrior princess refused to drown
She came with lessons, for she was a blessing
And taught us all without preaching, without a voice, without a word
Quietly she taught, loudly we learned
baby love
baby love gathered her prayers from far and wide
baby love
baby love watched hope grow in her mama's eyes
baby love
baby love decided she was going to make of herself a replica of the one whom she will one day call 'Mama'
And that little miracle that faith birthed, carries the light within and cast darkness aside
Phoebe!

Dear Bernice,
I love your bottom line:
"And that little miracle that faith birthed, carries the light within and cast darkness aside
Phoebe!"
Praise the name of Jesus! How wonderful!
