Failure Causes Me To Go Deeper

Suddenly

love seems to explode in my world.  

Caught by a song

or floating notion,

in a snap,

what had been traveling through,

capturing my attention

to be of utmost importance,

dissolves;

love has now decorated itself

boldly so all has new color. 

Shaken for motivations of all kinds,

I begin the pondering

of what love might speak;

for although known to be mine,

each occasion

is fresh like a needed meal

for hunger’s call. 

Holding on with utmost approach,

I stretch the moment

by repeating over and over

loves impression

with this entrance cry

– “Shine, oh shine on me,

love that walks in impromptu. 

Spread Your sentiment about

so the fragrance of Your delicate aroma

raises notice

some One has arrived! 

Leap, my heart,

as I embrace the Hug

I know is coming my way.”

Joy covered in tears accompany

for I am so loved

not a thought enters

of my own appearance;

how unlovely I might be at the moment. 

Entered so many, many times before

assures me this entrance is to love,

just as I am. 

No worries;

no obligations;

and yet I struggle to trap love to stay. 

For the Song that entered

brings with each encounter

new clothes to cloth me,

new eyes to see differently;

enriching me with strength

to replace such weaknesses. 

If only, oh, if only

I could share back

such tremendous affection! 

Failure causes me to go deeper

into the wonder

of such love given me. 

Delight surrounds me

with capacity as I hunger

of this mighty love.

I seek to splurge

with emotions

as feverishly I gather

to fill my belly with His zeal

so lavishly poured upon me.  

I ask with plea’s….

“What can I do to love You back?

I am so empty and frail.” 

His Voice sounds as thunder

about to bring the soaking

of pure drenching soft rain…

”Let me come in and live with you.”
