Luck could not interpret this treasure I've attained
This love I've acquired, this warmth I have gained
Buried beneath physical demeanor and attire
Lies an unexplainable sensation of desire
Years I have envisioned living this dream
Moments consumed with an adventurous gleam
Of a second in time when I'd enact my affection
A prospect of expressing my suppressed ambition
Talents and gifts to each are bestowed
Disclosing our potential, to God is owed
For I have discovered so much through sharing
The peace, the strength, the grandeur in caring
Finally I've surrendered my apprehensions and fears
My soul has awaken through laughter and tears
My spirit is free now to proclaim how I feel
This passion for writing so vivid, so real
God has empowered me to be an inspiration
Who am I to withhold this Divine Intervention?
I'll gladly embrace this awesome commission
A voice of motivation to all who might listen

Amen.

Thanks for your post. I would like to say firstly that I hope you do well in the competition, I entered in January, and read the winning poem, the standards are so high, but some excellent work is produced. This poem is an example of why we should encourage poets. Thanks to you for this

From the Caribbean Sea to Machu Picchu in Peru, and from birds to flowers and butterflies, Reflections and Treasured Wonders offers a collection of images gathered from around the world.
These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .

Amen.
