Prayer Poem by Philip Metres

Prayer

Rating: 4.5


Wither me to within me:
Welt me to weal me common again:
Withdraw to wear me weary:
Over me to hover and lover again:

Before me to form and perform me:
Round me to rill me liquid incisions:
Behind me to hunt and haunt me:
Down me to drown indecision:

Bury me to seed me: bloom me
In loam me: grind me to meal me
Knead me to rise: raise me to your mouth

Rive me to river me:
End me to unmend me:
Rend me to render me:

A Devotional poem of total submission to the Will of GOD, well articulated and nicely penned with spiritual insight. Faith keeps those that keep the faith. A beautiful piece indeed. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.

Sounds like a prayer in a hopeless state of mind. The subject seems to be an adversary. Thanks for sharing.
