Sway Me Closer to TheeA Poem by Melinda McQueenSway Me Closer to Thee
A feather floated on a breeze, Swaying, yet driven with fearless ease. As I sat and watched, Higher and higher it launched.
A cool wind caused it to summersault, And into an even higher plane it was caught. I still watched, mesmerized, As I followed it with my eyes.
I couldn’t help but to think That if I dared to blink, I’d lose sight Of the lightest feather high in the sky.
Looking up, all I could see Was a tiny speck of what it used to be. I began to ponder where my life led, And this thought filled my head…
Floating on the wind of God’s grace, He carries me in His gentle way. Drawing me nigh, A feather am I.
Guide me, O God, into the higher plane As I live for You along the journey paved. Like a gentle breeze, Sway me closer to Thee. © 2018 Melinda McQueenReviews
