I wrote this poem about a month ago to express my heart to the Lord.
Come Again
Potter, have thy way!
My heart—so very hard!
My Master’s molding clay,
Feels a pot broken, charred.
Come again; soft’n my heart!
Fountain, quench my thirst!
My heart—so very dry!
The Spring once loved first,
Now broken cisterns, lies.
Come again; drench my heart!
Healer, let me see!
My heart—so very blind!
Open my eyes to thee,
With thy salve, love so kind.
Come again; unveil my heart!
Lover, fan my fire!
My heart—so very cold!
The flame of my desire,
but a mem’ry, of old.
Come again; warm my heart!
Father, comfort me!
My heart—so very torn!
My tears flow endlessly,
From soul, downcast, forlorn.
Come again; hush my heart!
Come again;
Come again;
Oh, Spirit of God, come!
Renew the passion of my soul;
Come again, and make me whole!

This was not only a great poem Amber but a wonderfully humble appeal to God for His grace. I love the flow of it as well as the use of language. Positively excellent.
ditto ditto and ditto. I am always blown away by my peers that write such eloquent poems! I truly don't understand having this writing gift. :-)
This poem is a great portal of our Heavenly Father. A humble pray to a faithful God. This is really good amber
