Breath Of Life Poem by Mark Heathcote

Breath Of Life

Rating: 3.5


Breath of life; let me follow.
Whatever misfortunes suspend
Breath of life; let me follow.
Where you begin, you end.

Breath of life; let me follow.
Wherever you climb or fall
Breath of life; let me follow.
Let me dance child-like enthral.

Breath of life; let me follow.
Help me to learn—what is hard?
Breath of life; let me follow.
And teach me what to discard.

Breath of life; let me follow.
It isn't easy. Poison lung after poison lung,
Breath of life; let me follow.
Not even when you're said to be young.

Breath of life; let me follow.
Keep my path straight and strong.
Breath of life; let me follow.
Monitor tonight-tomorrow; lifelong.

Breath of life; let me follow.
Fill my heart with an endless song.
Breath of life; let me follow.
I am prepared for a marathon.

In every aspect you have to follow the breath of life. There is no alternative. When we follow the inner heart and trust God we become of course successful. This poem is excellently penned.
