Water Divine

Kurt Philip Behm

Have you built
a cathedral
with language
unblessed

Adopting an
Angel
your spirit
undressed

Have you
filtered the
verbiage
with water Divine

The Savior
within
you
— still waiting to find

    One more good poem from you with much meaning behind the lines. You really must put some care into your poems. Most of them say more than what one finds on the surface. Good read!

    I like this poem, especially the last part I think we are waiting to truly find the savior within us. I love it
