Sonnet: True Faith Poem by Dr John Celes

Sonnet: True Faith

Rating: 4.1


Yes, faith can lift a mountain from its base!
Yes, faith can turn a river off its course;
Yes, faith can win an impossible race!
Yes, faith can calm a lion as he roars!

Sure, faith can do impossible a thing!
Sure, faith can hold a marriage till the end!
Sure, faith can well a happy ending bring!
Sure, faith can truly iron bars too bend!

True faith can make a friendship very strong!
True faith unites two lovers tie the knot!
True faith can make miles look like one furlong!
True faith can win a war although ill-fought!

None can afford to lose faith since their birth,
And faith in God is what we need on earth.

The true essence of faith in God is aptly captured in the poem. A fine and lofty verse elegantly embellished with poetic rhyme and rhythm. Thanks for sharing and do remain enriched.
