I Met a Man by papa55mike

I was face down
in the street
while the rain
fell heavy
my spirit flowed
down the curb
into the gutter
with the whiskey
and urine
it was there
this drunken sot
stoned
out of his mind
heard a voice
calling my name
I saw a hand
reaching out
for an empty soul
taking His hand
filled this empty heart
with undying love
lifting the spirit
of this unworthy son
to heavenly joy
while healing the soul
of a brokenhearted man

 

Author Notes
This is one of the three poems I wrote for the My Faith contest.

Many thanks for stopping by to read!
Have a great day, and God bless.
mike
