Treasures of Love

      Treasures of love

For most, the time has been so long

I’ve heard my children’s cry

Prepare to sing your wedding song

Your Groom is drawing nigh

 

He’s coming soon; at last you’ll meet

Upon the Wind you’ll ride

My joy will soon be made complete

When Christ is at your side

 

Look up; sweet bride, I’ve heard your prayer

Receive life’s robe of Light

Your Bridegroom’s cloud you’ll shortly share

Will soon be in your sight

 

In faith, you’ve answered Jesus’ call

I know you love my Son

In righteousness He’ll greet you all

In Truth you’ll then be one

 

Diamonds to me are faithful prayer

Rubies are songs you sing

Tears are pearls gilding your hair

And love your wedding ring

 

Your offerings will never fade

Daily you grew so fair

From all your jewels my Son has made

A crown for you to wear

 

I’ve longed to have you dwell with me

I’ve loved you from the start

Approach sweet maid come now and see

The treasures of my heart

 

For you my love my faithful few

My doors are open wide

With life eternal vowed to you

There’s so much more inside….

About the Poet
I never wrote a word of poetry in my life. Till the day Jesus took my hand and touched my soul.....I invite your response. However most poems are not about me! Very few are. But the feed-back good, bad or indifferent is always desired. Not meant to offend, but I write about many things in many a guise. Of life, death, lost, found, saved, backsliders, new comers, repenting souls, doubting hearts, heathens, Christians, fire, water, Satan's daughter, wallowing in sin, saved, made sound walking in Light, graceful righteous. Suffering, ecstatic, bored, excited, sad, delighted, Sick, well, lame, able, living, dying, etc. etc. etc. Writing about anything, everything and everyone as the spirit leads. All meant to reveal, waken, revive, encourage, shame, help. Gladden, pick up, exalt, portrait, liberate. Again over 99% of my work is not about me. Although at times I write as though I were or am. Speaking e.g. in the first person. This is quite common even in the bible itself. Prophets speak of themselves, then God speaks, again the prophet, then God......Quite often it's difficult to distinguish whom it is that at any given time is speaking or narrating.
