BEST POEM OF THE MONTH CORNER

 

Thee

By Debby Sorensen Carlson

Copyright © 2006 Debby Sorensen Carlson

 

Just a closer walk
with Thee,
intended to bring
the masses
to their knees.

But, they spout-
who is Thee,
and are you sure;
Thee is the only way
to eternity ?

Yea, the valley is deep,
and eternity ,
takes a tight walk-
and an ability
to see Thee.

This path I walk
is directed;
spirited by hope-
held together
by my belief..

in Thee...
