Seek and Ye Shall Find
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

Other Poems by Phillip Phidippides


keep knocking, pilgrim, keep knocking,
though gallows hover near,
though hallowed ground seems hard to find
and world seems rife with fear -

keep seeking for that promised land
like Moses through the sea,
like Jacob in the desert,
Zacchaeus in the tree -

keep asking for an open door
or map to solve the maze,
then bask within the Son shine,
welcomed by His rays -

His kingdom always hovers near,
closer than your skin,
He hears your every heartbeat,
keep knocking, then dive in.

About the Poet
Born and raised and live in Kentucky but I wear shoes most of the time. Nearing retirement and looking forward to spending more time with my wife of 36 years and our wonderful daughter and son-in-law. Have worked in the medical profession for over 30 yrs. Lots of changes! Started writing poetry after my father passed away in 2006. My sister passed away at age 50 and it has been a joy to help guide her five precious children and now we have six great-nieces and great-nephews. I am the guardian for my handicapped brother and my wife and I arrange for his 24 hr care. In reality, Willy's simple faith and absolute inexhaustible supply of unconditional love are probably the inspirational source for most of my poetry. He and I have easily watched more than 2,000 episodes of Mister Rogers together! "But a cheerful heart has a continual feast." He has a continual feast and is more than willing to share! If the world could look through his compassionate/non-judgmental eyes, this would be a much nicer place! (I have actually been posting on this site for a few years but a technological glitch erased me.)
