Beauty of Believing...


For this Two-for-Tuesday prompt:
Write a believe poem and/or...
Write a don't believe poem.

For Beauty of being is climbing the hill
But then, taking sweet time to enjoy the view


Believe in the largeness of faith's little leaps
Of finish-lines not too far-off to forget
For Beauty of living lies not in yon deep
But Here, in Now's Very Present Pirouette

Believe in a Power that surpasses thought 
Believe that God's goodness will never depart
In Beauty of loving; its masterpiece wrought
Not in fairness of form or face, but the heart

Believe in small syllables like 'us' and 'we'
Believe in the potent potential of ink
The Beauty of learning in poetry
In eth'real elixirs, sky blue, gold and pink

Believe in Becoming; not in standing still
Braving the battle of Seasons, strange and new
For Beauty of being is climbing the hill
But then, taking sweet time to enjoy the view

Believe He is able, Who breathes life to dust
And spreads out a feast for taste buds of the soul
Beauty of Believing accomplishes trust
While poised on Percussion of Unknown's drum roll

Janet Martin

Ephes.5:15-17

Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, 
 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. 
Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.
