Mercy and Bread
by Gypsy Blue Rose
my heart aches and yearns
to love You and be loved I look for You day and night close, far, here, and there reaching for heaven as cypress branches do is that where You are? I thought I saw You in a motherless child's eyes and a homeless man begging with open hands for mercy and bread or was it You in the sunrise upon the sea and sunset over rolling hills? |
Poem of the Month contest entry
Inspired by 'The Book of Longings' by Sue Monk Kidd
In Spain, where I am from, we believe cypress trees point to heaven. They are planted in cemeteries.
Thank you for reading and reviewing my poem.
