Sonnets of the heart!
by Joel Akin
Over the years I have attempted to write poetry. Though I may never be a Robert Frost or Emily Dickenson still I find there is a part of me that likes to write. My English Professor, Dr. Woods, once said to me that my poetry is actually prose. True poetry is descriptive rather then just a phrasing of emotions. Never the less, it is my hope that some of these words and phrases will capture your heart, your imagination and be a blessing to you. Lets start out with “The Wind Blows”
The Wind Blows
Though the wind blows
across the sea
only the foaming waves
prove its strength to me
but someday I shall find
a place I can call my own
where my feet are firmly planted
with my loved one in my home
The wind will not shake
no waves toss me sore
the rain will not pelt me
I’ll feel pain no more
God will be my comfort
His spirit will safely guide
and though life’s trials tempt me
under his wings I shall hide.
