Plea for Sanctity

One day
The thunder of the distant stars
Will no longer be so distant
Soon we will speak the language of
Blizzards’ inviting whispers
And the dusky shadow of night

Faith’s limitless mysteries
Will no longer be so mysterious
Our lives will be spent
Discovering
More and more of
God’s incredible world

On that day
Whether or not it’s centuries
In the future
The lion and the lamb
Will lie together, without concern,
In harmony

I lie in my bed
Staring blankly at the ceiling
Wondering, hoping
That the eternal paradise
Will come soon
“Please…”

But until that day
We must watch as evil unfolds
In the dreary world around us
And can only hope
The day of salvation
Will
Come
Soon…









I've been reading a lot of wonderful poetry, and I wanted to try my hand at it. Turns out it's totally relaxing, meditative even. There wasn't much of a base for this particular one, the pattern is kind of abstract…though, I did try to follow a vague system.
Did anyone like it? I've never done actual poetry before, so this is completely new to me. Leave a comment if you can, please!!
