Near and Far 
I can taste the sky As I breathe the air Right here and now - Though, the length is far. I can see the twinkle From where I stand Of the nighttime Shimmering star. Far from my ears Are the curses and jeers Of those who mock The tender sheep Born of God's flock. Far from my mind Is the circumstance To ponder any evil -- Giving satan his chance. Near and far Remains the shadow Of God's wings Protecting me from Spiteful stings. I can place my burdens Far into the Hand Of One Who is near, That helps me to love And never fear. Near to my heart Are the eternal words Of the Lord Protecting me always With His mighty sword. Julie Pisacane © 2007 Psalm 73:27 For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee. 28 But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem |
