I am not wise
in the ways
of the world.
I only have
a quarter century
of experience.
There are some
that have four
times as much.
But this much
I do know:
we are special.
We are not
here by chance.
We did not
evolve from apes.
We were created
by a Supreme Being.
I feel it
in my heart,
in my soul.
Whoever you are,
you are special.
God loves you.
He has a
purpose for you.
What is it?
You can find out.
Just ask Him.
Talk to Him.
Wisdom comes from, experiene and yes God is our guide. Wonderful poem. :)
Beautiful thoughts friend! I do agree with you! Each one is special and each one is important in the eyes of God! If we lack anything and if we ask in earnest, He shall grant us our request!
A powerful poem, with Faith being the support for a life well lived. Wise and true.
Stunning write about faith in God and true goodness that makes people special!
Part 2. If this world is created by Him, then He has created it for everyone, everything, with a purpose. Even a grain of sand……
Beautiful! Brilliant poem, enjoyed reading every word. But, let me remind you, "Apes were also created by a Supreme Being', The Very Same Supreme Being, and with a purpose. Maybe, the ape does not know that, maybe it does! Who knows, except Him!
Excellent poem Linda, so perfectly and intellectually poetical in its purpose, thank you for sharing it. RoseAnn
I wrote the poem 'American Election 2020: Just Days Away' inspired by the poem 'You Are Special' by the poet Linda Bella Wassermeister and dedicated to the poet Linda Bella Wassermeister.
Metamorphosis is impossible according to evolution, the caterpillar dies dissolves into liquid soup, then emerges as a totally new insect, without multiple legs and a feed machine mouth. Transformation is a miracle, wings, flight, the ability to feed breed mate all instant, in a brief time scale. No millions of years slight adaptation. The miracle has to occur several times instantly, genders of both species, both able to find each other and reproduce. Think about it.
