Faith's Life Jacket

Walking into the sunrise, holding onto faith like a life jacket or preserver, wanting the safety of my being to be comforted and kept in beds of roses. Being tantalized, unfolded in recesses of intellect where serenity is felt through an excessive energy of this mind, it's curiosity out of this world and off the chart. A wonderful and enthusiastic fervor, bringing pleasure and happiness into me, hard times coming and going, leav- ing me stranded in the desert of my soul at times. Intellect comes to my rescue through a bluened light of the Divine, enlightening my mind intensely and energeti- cally. A positive aspect of intellect in every endeavor that I write poetry into, compose music or paint a portrait from memory.
