A chapter in the book 2024 Gypsy's Free Verse

Embraced with Tenderness

by Gypsy Blue Rose

 
 
You spread love

wherever You go
 
sometimes it's welcome

with the opened arms

of the inconsolable

broken and forgotten ones

            others with dark souls

            and full coffers,

            crucify You

            and crown You with thorns
 
but you embrace everyone with tenderness
 


You teach us

-that with love everything is possible-

a simple lesson to learn

yet many people don't

            they would rather stay
 
            inside their golden palaces
             
            with a perverse foundation
 
            built on the unseen poor
 
but you embrace everyone with tenderness
 
 


people can learn from nature

as branches quiver in the sun

reaching faithfully to the sky

            their shaking leaves in the winds

            with strong down-to-earth roots

you embrace everything with tenderness
 
 
 

Write A Review



Inspired by my favorite poets and their books, Kahlil Gibran's- The Prophet-; and Sue Monk Kidd - The Book of Longings-. Both books are fictional but inspired by the gospel according to John about Jesus Christ in the New Testament.

I divided the poems into chapters so they are easier to read

Thank you very much for reading and reviewing my poem
