Oh, let us savor this beginning
So sublime,
And rush not
As excitement weighs heavily
Upon our minds.
Yet, we must not hesitate
To answer the soft
And gentle awareness,
Of intense and increasing closeness.
For to surrender is to
Keep desire alive.
And if I should die before we kiss,
Happy I will be
Anticipating the bliss.
For the joy of waiting is great.
And much is lost through not waiting, and contemplating. So wonderfully explained by this foot note! For the joy of waiting is great. We are prone to miss this joy by 'rushing headlong'. So beautifully portrayed! The day is begun with a nice, well poised poem. Thank you.
@Khairul Ahsan Thank you so much. I see you enjoy reading the notes, lol. I'm glad your day was brightened by my poem.
That is the problem with everyone nowadays. Nobody wants to wait everyone seems to be in a rush and not going anywhere. Love takes time and should not be rushed along. One should take the time and savor the sweet moments. A lovely write.
Desires are alive. We surrender before God. He is sublime savior. This poem is excellently and brilliantly penned.10
Thank you for reading and commenting. I agree that we who live with God as our center surrender all of our desires to him. God bless you!
This poem blows my mind. For to surrender is to keep desire alive. What words can do to one's mind, and you have that power to captivate one's mind. Anticipation!
The power of patience is here excellently express. Well done my friend.
Thanks for reading Patricia and Roseann. As you both said, savor sweet moments because those are the ones that are most meaningful.
