You Love Me

I was challenged for the next week to reflect on God's love for me. Being the person that I am, I took this challenge to the next level and made it a poem.

For more than the colors

Splashed on this clay canvas

For more than the dreams

This heart does hold

For more than prestige

Or temporal status

You love me.

For more than prowess

Or ephemeral talents

For more than this collection

Of dust and bones

For more than my works

Or efforts valiant

You love me.

For more than my thoughts

Or deep words I extol

For more than my songs

Or prayers and poems

For more than the scars

And the sins of old

You love me.
