Lost and FoundA Poem by sleepingsun1Who are you I meet at in the eve Who with one glance makes me hope and believe That I have found in your heart Eden’s paradise And helps me to love, but forsake passion as the price.
For thou art no Gabriel or light bringer No Seraphim or Cherubim, their radiance doth not linger On thine face, and yet you and I may call Our union the celestial benevolence before the Fall.
For it is the trust that is so dear That I had lost in that God I so fear Now found in this unlikely source Who’s eyes are soft, but who’s voice is coarse. And in coarse beauty, contradictory sound I have found a paradoxical glory, all past bound And delivered as a gift to thee, as that faithful hound Has fled from the wilderness into shelter; lost, now found. © 2012 sleepingsun1Reviews
