AN ODE TO GOD, MY LOVE!
Down the corridor of time
I’ve known a love so fine
Years passed by, love remained the same
A fine friendship became
Who knew this could happen?
Yet Love made it happen
For life is but a mystery
Filled with unknown history!
Pained and broken was I
Ignored and left to sigh
Poor fragile me, I cried
Handle me with care, I begged
No hearts heard my cry
Tears rolled never to dry
By gone are those days
Marvelous are God’s ways!
Years went by, we found each other
Love put my broken pieces together
Touched me with gentle gesture
Pressed me with tender care
Life seemed wonderful
It was no more dreadful
Love and care was all I knew
Life bloomed once again anew!
Perfect is this love story
All I see is God’s great glory
Life seems now brighter
For Love made it lighter
With multi-colored hues so clear
Smiles and hugs ever so dear
God is Love and so very special
Whose touch is ever so perennial!
