When love immortal from above <br />Looks down on man with tender love <br />He saw him there perched like a dove <br />So puzzled of his first love lost <br />And wondered how much time had passed <br /> <br />From everlasting beauty undefiled <br />He found himself now fully beguiled <br />The shame despair and agony felt <br />He knew not that he could have knelt <br />Remorse sets in right under his belt <br /> <br />He knew right then that he had default <br />The sincere design of the human heart <br />He sought for leaves from a special tree <br />To see if he from guilt could be free <br />But with dismay from it he couldn't flee <br /> <br />With shamefacedness among the trees <br />The sweet sound of that gentle breeze <br />Brought memories of those foregone days <br />When garden life was not a maze <br />How sweet life was and now just a haze <br /> <br />Man tried to gaze into God's eyes <br />But found out now he seeks disguise <br />He wondered what would make him die <br />When he'd been given the whole earth to spy <br />And now no place to even cry <br /> <br />He sought the love he once had known <br />But found that now he's on his own <br />The pain could he have ‘fore discern <br />Would hinder what he now disdain <br />And from his action now must learn <br /> <br />The touch of love is from above <br />The price paid by the Savior's blood <br />And all who look to Him by faith <br />Will enter with Him through the gate <br />Where the bliss of eternity waits <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />All rights reserved.<br /><br />Gladys Brown Prince<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-touch-of-love-6/
