Childhood

3/7/2017

 

Lord Jesus hold me in your arms
Tonight I am a child

I am vulnerable, afraid, searching...

 

When I close my eyes

I keep Your image there;

it reassures me

 

Your gentle face beckons

me to come

to never let go

 

I am old, but

I still go back to 

being a child

 

And in Your arms

In Your Presence

is the only place I feel

 

Safe...

About the Poet
Michelle Angelini, aka Chelle, has been writing poetry for over 40 years. She has been published in many Southern California chapbooks and calendars. I am retired and dealing with my health issues. My Saviour, Jesus is always with me. God holds me within His wings. I am working slowly on a second book poetry and possibly my photography. And, I'm over 65 now and still loving it, even though my social life is not what it once was because of the painful fibromyalgia. It's quite frustrating, but I know Jesus still has "work" for me to do to show how much He blesses me.
