outside smoking a cigarette looking at the sky.
the twinkling of a light caught my eye.
i looked towards the heavens to see what it could be.
i thought that it was the reflection of a star
but this light was greater by far.
it seemed to be falling from the sky
getting bigger and brighter than i could ever dream
and it seemed to hypnotize me
as i stood there watching this sight.
i began to wonder what can it be?
a plane or helicopter high in the sky
with their lights searching wide.
as i continued to gaze upon this light
there formed such a beautiful sight
it was the face of a man with such beautiful features
a beard trimmed to perfection, and shoulder length hair
with teeth as bright as any star in the sky
and his eyes were piercing blue.
and as the face continued to come down.
i tried to scream but i did'nt make a sound.
as the face got closer to me, i knew that it had to be
the face of god looking down and no love to be found.
for love is forsaken and innocent lives are taken.
the lives of these unborn children were taken without
any thought to the fact that they have rights just like
you and me.
why is it that we do not see.
if protection was to be used-lovemaking would not be abused.
this was the face in the sky asking 'why.'?
An amazing poetic vision. Your title is especially eye-catching and appealing. Kind regards, Sandra
Wonderful poem using wonderful imagery!
Great write! Divinely intervened words for sure. I have one suggestion that you may have already heard from others? May want to prase your poem in paragraph form. It makes it easier to read, more of a flow. And I had found myself losing that when I was reading your fantastic poem. I almost felt like I had missed the next word that rhymed with the last one said. Re-read what you've written and if it is hard for you to read smoothly, then it is also to the readers. This poem is to beautiful to waiste on losing ones place. God Bless, Linda
