This heart
became an arid biome;
through the cracks
one could reach abyss;
but Thou
deluged this heart
with Grace
filling every pore
for me to sing
of You
forever more.

A wonderful expression of love, Sumana!
This is a beautiful prayer of gratitude Sumana. Love how you used both conditions in our life’s journey.
Beautiful writing of grace. It is how grace really is, how it comes to our dry spots and rescues us with blessed rain.
Beautiful words of faith.
Amen!
Love the personal side of faith, & yes, you nailed grace, & really rocked the prompt; nice.
May this be true. 🙂
Lovely – and the images point the contrast so vividly too.
May the earth, too, feel this benison. Love.
It is a blessing and a prayer to read this beautiful poem, my friend. So incredibly beautiful.
Sumana, we have a saying here: You are one who somehow ‘uses lemons to make lemonade.” This means to me…you make the drought into something good! This poem speaks to your strength.
Oh to be able to make the best of things… Hope the soil will be fertile too.
filling every pore
for me to sing
of You
forever more.
This is absolutely gorgeous writing Sumana ❤ really well done 🙂
Lots of love,
Sanaa
How nice to have someone building for a wonderful relationship. It can’t be better than that for a friendly overture!

There is both a sense of loss and of keeping hold of our loved ones inside of ourselves.. so that we will always be together to quench the droughts and stem the tides..
Love is very invasive but so welcome may I never be without it.
filling every pore for me to sing of you – I imagine it would be a lovely hymn..bringing floods of emotions
Such eloquent, simple truth and beauty in this. Very nice.
There is a wonderful sense of peace in this beautiful prayer
Ability to shine in dark times indeed is Grace…I think about Danko’s heart….beautiful!
Thank you for this lovely prayer Sumana. It fills me with gratitude.
Beautiful poem!
Such a welcome deluge!
Thanks to divine blessing huge! 🙂
There is so much peace. It is a hymn. Utterly beautiful.
Yes, songs of the ones we love, forevermore.
Peaceful poetry, and well penned too. Thank you for this enjoyable read.
This is so exquisite and evocation – a lovely piece . . . beautifully woven.
