TowersA Poem by Samual HartwellHow can you ask this of me There are others it should be I have ignored and denied you I once felt you forgot me too A gift you have gave A path you did pave I struggle to find my way Listening for what you might say The road is overgrown Lost or never known I begin to build a tower Soon to be final hour The base I give all my coin Passion I use to join Now going higher I build more confidence I do wield I feel the love in my spire continuing up and even higher My voice echoes over the land I still can’t see from where I stand Imagining what I’ll see at the top Nearing the heavens I shall stop Bliss reflects an image of me A shining light for all to see I now see the path you set How big the wager you did bet Your strength in me now renew My faith in you tells me what to do My heart’s song must be sung Love’s bell must be rung Fear and dark will be cast out Light pushing out all other doubt I will do what you have tasked Knowing now what is asked From all around us and above I will embrace them with our love Joy can be found once we are pure Happiness abound that is sure I long to feel again your grace Warm and safe in your embrace © 2018 Samual Hartwell |
