Admin	Another poem of brokenness by Sharon Brown Posted : 6 Jul, 2008 01:03 PM I think she's got talent. How about giving it up for her:applause::applause::applause: :goofball: BROKEN ANGEL WINGS by... Sharon L/w Brown In a long gown of mud streaked white Soiled by sin�s crimson stains, Her frail spirit and weakened arms held forth A pair of broken angel wings. With her last bit of dignity and ceremony She has humbly returned them home, Sadly saying, �My Lord! They�ve been through much While I called them my own. This left wing once shielded my dying heart Till it could recoup and mend, And �oft this right wing has shielded my soul From the glares and stones of man. These blessed wings have carried me above dangers To a calm beyond the clouds mighty storm, They�ve taken the spirit of this modern day woman Back to the innocence of her childhood farm. They�ve been through battle after battle Because of selfish ignorance attacking my life, They have encircled me in warmth and love When fleeting affections brought me strife. But I am tired of their abuse! See! Like me, they are bent and stained, O! Sweet Lord and Savior A fallen soul pleas mercy for her wings. I come to lay them down to due honor For I am no longer worthy to be the cause, That such a precious gift from heaven Should suffer any further loss. I feel sad and defeated at their peril That sin seems yet to reign, O! Lord! I�ve tried to fly so high for You But I�ve broken even these angel wings.� Confession gave way to peace At the Lord gently smiled, then cried, �Oh troubled heart! It was for the sinner That I once laid my own wings aside. Into the depths of Hell I flew Stripped of my powers and Saintly robes, And you, like I, must overcome That another �VICTORY� might be told.� �Then I heard the bleating of a lamb Saw the shadow of a Shepherd with his rod, It seemed I heard the whispers of angels Somehow, I felt the presence of God. Red waters from a near by river rose to engulf me Again, I clung to those outstretched wings, �The Lord hath washed away your sins� I thought I heard invisible voices sing. A light before me grew bright then brighter As sleep gave way to the dawn of morn, And opening my eyes to that peaceful new day I knew that somehow� The wings of my spirit had been reborn�� Post Reply
