Poem Artwork

...held in the comfort of
my Father's hand, I am
imperfection.  My heart
hardened by life, I am
stubborn as they come:
He softens the obdurate
exterior with His fingers,
blots the many tears I
cry with a tender whisper:
'I love you.'  I relax under
His touch, content to be
me.  No false pretenses,
no accusations, just pure
acceptance and Grace ...

(c) 2010, Karla Dorman (5/25)

Not giving up, churning forward confronting heavy seas, there are few horizon to cross before the calm waters can welcome you...
As a challenge answer, human, tender but decisive.
