Ruth C. Webb Poems

God, are you ever lonely?
Father, are you sometimes sad?
Do you wish you
Touch a heart and make it glad?
...

Like a river, God's love flows down
From higher hills, through the heart streams
Like a torrent, it seeks to pound
Through tightened valves, through broken seams,
...

I feel light and airy,
flying like a fairy;
Free from all burden of guilt;
Free from walls I've built.
...

We are always in the process
of either building up or tearing down.
Whether we destroy or create
depends on the direction of our gaze.
...

Questions And Answers

God, are you ever lonely?
Father, are you sometimes sad?
Do you wish you
Touch a heart and make it glad?
Dear God, do you ever weep?
Father, do you sometimes fret?
Do you sigh really deep
When you seek and do not get?
Dear God, how much can you give?
Father, how much can you take?
How many years can you live
With no love for Your Own Sake?
Dear child, now I am not lonely,
Daughter, I can never be sad,
For if you, and you only,
Seek my love, and I will be glad.

Good poetry. It is good to read poetry that insightfully reflects on God's infinite, yet personal goodness. Hmmm, we have the same last name. I wonder if we are related.
