that look to feed off my aching corps. (corpse)
while it is even a labor to breath? (breathe)
It is all I can do to lay (lie) here still,
This verse, your last, is an amazing portrait of one waiting to take a journey of faith:
This is my spirit's lament in the raw
and from my seed of faith I'll draw
the living waters that soak to revive,
and even in sorrow,
... I'll thank God I'm alive!
Just beautiful!!!

Comment from Jewell McChesney
I had to come back to this to grasp it fully.
You have taken heartache and created a visual image in the mind's eye.
I know this feeling too well, having disappointment rip my heart out and
stomp on it a few times.
Even time has not healed the latest hope for love. Abrupt endings without true closure feel just as you have expressed.
Clearly, you have exposed an open wound.

A poem with a wonderful moral to be heeded and followed by us all. While it is true that life is full of trials and tribulations,God does help us to move on if we have faith and trust in him. A must read poem for all.

Hi Blue-Stubby! What a beautiful and thought-provoking poem! Its message to the mind and heart, its sharp potent imagery and powerful-yet-gentle emotion all weave together wonderfully well, flowing very smoothly through a superb free verse. Great job! Andy
