"Why?" a poem
This is a follow-up on my last post How I Met Ms. Judith. I mentioned that I put my thoughts together in a poem...and here are the results! This is my first attempt at writing blank verse - a poem that doesn't rhyme. It's actually quite fun. (you should try it!)
Enjoy!

Why?
They ask me
Why do you believe?
Why do you have faith?
Why do you love the un-seeable?
The world tempts and pulls
It tries to blind me
What can I say?
Why?
God shows me
Why do I believe?
I feel Him working
Working in my life right now
I fear, He comforts
In His arms I dwell
Now I am safe
Why?
God prods me
Why do I have faith?
I can see Him near
Creation shows His splendor
Since He made it all
Why would I not trust?
God is around
Why?
God shows me
Why do I love Him?
How could I not love?
My Savior, He first loved me
My God died for me
Now I am rescued
For God is Love
Why?
God guides me
Why is my life His?
Freely I gave it
To worship, praise, adore Him
He comforts, guides, loves
He whispers my name
He is with me
Why?
I see now
Why am I in Christ?
With arms open wide
He welcomes me to accept Truth
Tender, He holds me
He guides me through life
He is my God
Thoughts? Have you ever written a poem with blank verse? How would you answer the questions I asked in the poem? Comment below!
