I Wanna be Your Beautiful

I Wanna be Your Beautiful

A Poem by Melinda McQueen
"

Honoring God.

"
Like a bird in the sky,
Soaring through the blue.
Like a sparkle in the eye
That is of  You.
With a heart set on You,
May I be full.
In all I do,
I wanna be Your beautiful. 
I fail You time and time, 
And my head hangs low, 
For I want You to be in this heart of mine;
This love I know. 
When all of life 
Has its pull…
Even when my failures rise,
I wanna be Your beautiful.
Your grace is given 
When my soul is weak.
This life I’m livin’
Is my journey to Thee.
Flow in my heart 
As a river’s endless pool.
Lord, shine into my dark;
I wanna be Your beautiful.

Absolutely beautifully written, I like how you return to the same line when summing up your stanza, it gives the poem its consistency yet the ongoing flow of what you aspire to be just enlightens the line more so each time.

Keep up the great work, I look forward to reading more of your writing.

^^ This is a very beautiful poem, I enjoyed reading it. I feel the same way, I want to live for Him and have His love shine through, and that would make me beautiful inside and out.
