OUR LIVES changed dramatically yesterday (21.03tting m.20) Brian & I got the KEYS to our very First House ! Despite COVID - we*re gearried - in April. We need a House for US & our Cat - Smokey ! Brian will live in it until we*re married. The House is near our Folks - Church & Work. So far GOD has supplied all our needs - AMEN !
MY GOD - You are the only SHEPHERD I need
To guide me - each day - through Life & my Job
You*re with me in all my relationships
With BRIAN - My Family - Friends & Clients
You lead me through green Pastures & Still Waters
You provide my needs - and I am Satisfied !
In the current circumstances _ working
with COVID - I do not fear Death - but do .......
My best to keep all my Patients mobile.
With a symphony of empathy - I comfort them !
You prepare a positive Life for me
I live righteously - to honour your Name
I have Faith - that when this life is over
I*ll dwell with GOD in Heaven for ever !
Thanks for reading - comments please - Love ANGELA 💛💛💛💛💛
This poem is based on Psalm 23 and is presented as a 6 4 4 blank verse Sonnet - mainly in iambic pentameter - ten syllables per line. David was a Shepherd so he knew what he was talking about ! David knew how much he had to care for his Flock - so he used the analogy to describe God*s care for us. AMEN ! I learned much about Shepherds during my 15 months - in New Zealand - which has ten times more Sheep than People !
