Poem for Herne
Sun ,15/11/2009This was a makeup poem I did this morning for my “100 Poems In 100 Days” challenge over on LiveJournal. I thought I’d take the time to share it here.
————————————————————–
As I went walking through forested lands
with sorrows and fears held in my hands
my thoughts hot and dry as desert sands
I soon came upon a God.
Masculine and wild with all knowing gaze
and massive antlers growing above his face
full of power and sex, I was amazed
I stood before this God.
He bade my hands to loosen their grip
my fears and sorrows begain to slip
and my thoughts cleared of their nomadic trip
as I knelt before my God.
Though ever he comes and is hard to bear
I walk more gladly knowing he’s there
and thankful that I am more now aware
I worship with love my God.
