Alone on a Hill
Sitting high on a hill, looking out;
The world stands still all around.
Twinkling heavens call and shout;
Not a soul makes a sound.
Reaching out, a quiet word;
Though humming trees abound.
I find a free song - sing bird;
Not a thought, not a sound.
Noone notices, in despair;
Reaching out in a blank space.
You are surely unaware.
The prayer lifts, a certain care.
God hears when calling out;
The music sings to Him.
Angels lift, my spirit shouts,
Heavenly Father, fills me in.
About this poem
Spiritual guidance takes center stage. My life is full of abandonment. My words help heal the rejection. I hope others find comfort in my words.
