Nothing Else Is Needed Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

I need not know,
That you are blessed.
Nor am I tasking the time,
To see if you show it!
Like those self righteous,
With wings and halos.
Quoting highlighted scriptures...
From Bibles,
As they glow!

Hopefully there is a gratefulness.
Internally felt.
And a consciousness,
That expresses a thankfulness.

Confessions of a closeness to the Creator,
Which is The Most High...
Is a personal committment,
One daily lives.
And not considered a championship to win.
With expectations The Almighty will forgive,
Any and all sins.
As we have been religiously conditioned.

This should not be a bet...
One chooses to pursue to prove in a contest.
To regret upon one's transformation into death.

I need not know,
That you are blessed.
Nor am I tasking the time,
To see if you show it!

If it is felt,
Nothing else is needed...
To qualify this feeling.
And the sensation this feeling brings.
