the ceremony

Missing image



tossed and turned, I did
sleepless, all the night
for I longed for my lover
my pain, immense in his absence

relentless, I went out
searching street and alley
I wanted my lover!

I have to find my lover!
I have to have my lover!!
looking high and low

yet I did not find Him

weary and oh so tired, the night watchmen caught my eye
have you seen my lover, I asked? I cannot find him
"no", the watchmen said

but find him, I did

 

raising clouds of dust, I ran to him
throwing my arms around him
I did not let go until we arrived home...again

and to think... I could have missed the wedding



the ceremony begins...

his heart, full and bursting with joy
for me, his bride

the air, filled with his sweet fragrance
his gaze, only on me

oh, I do love him so

for I am my beloveds'...



and He is mine

    A lovely write. Brings to mind the parable of the Ten Virgins. I think you bring out some vital points: Do we want Him more than we want anything else, and live that truth in our minds and hearts and lives? And having prepared according to His instructions, will we leave behind, as your protagonist did, the comfortable, easy sins; the conveniences of our lives as they are at present, and forsaking all, search until we find Him, and embrace His life and ways? Beautiful concluding lines! Lovely pictures.
