In My Heart There Is Firm Knowledge (Free Verse Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

(after Elisabeth Eybers)

This morning the sky is again cobalt blue
where I see Your handiwork around me,
while the grass grows knee-high past my calves,
I know that You do have humanity in Your hands.
In my heart there is firm knowledge
that Your love is much more than just decrees,
You know every person and me just as we are
and against our nemesis you fight fiercely.
The corral of Your arms do include all people
where You have been sincerely loving from the begin,
did sacrifice Yourself as the pure holy lamb
and such wonderful love no one can fabricate.
Now where a virus do deadly spread,
it's with you that every human being do find salvation.
