Poems of Devotion Volume II: 2 - Tapa blanda

I have found poetry to be a wonderfully spiritual way for me to commune with God, and it matters not whether I am writing the poems, or simply reading them; a quiet serenity comes over me during those times that is a great comfort to my soul. I began my writings more than thirty years ago during a time in my life when I was unable to sleep well at night due to back pain. As a consequence, throughout the night, I would have to get up to apply a heating pad, and it was during these times that I began reading the Bible. This subsequently led me to the writing of poetry, for I have found the Holy Bible to be most effective in inspiring my ideas for devotional writing.. I have also been moved to write by the sight of a beautiful sunrise or sunset, or a mountain view.or perhaps just a word, phrase or scene will pop into my head at times while I'm exercising. Many ideas have come to me in my sleep and at those times I am compelled to get up go to my computer or to get a pencil and paper to jot the idea down before it is forgotten. It is my sincere hope that you will enjoy the reading of these poems and I pray that you will be blessed.
