Poems old and new

Healing

Healing


The clock on the wall
ticks on digitally forward.
On the wings of hope
faith firm in my pulse
and every heartbeat
I live on walking
on these new paths
of undiscovered joy.


He has a miraculous way
releasing us from the sad
shackles of sickness and sorrow,
from the prison of inability, inaction.


His healing power touches
our lives, enlivens the limbs,
empowers the nerves, nourishes
the body, returns the gift
of health and harmony.
