i spent the day looking for love
walking the footpaths endlessly
driving the long road without thinking
where it would lead my bleeding heart
until finally the road seemed to come
to a place where i could find love
but i just broke down uncontrollably
until i felt a gentle touch.
i realized i was at the foot of the hill
at the shrine of mount schoenstatt
i ran up the hill to the convent
weeping openly like a lost child
looking for love, for that gentle touch
until i saw the face of the blessed mother
and heard a voice telling me...
MY CHILD, LOOK AROUND NO MORE
FOR LOVE IS ALWAYS IN YOUR HEART.

Hi Possum,
This is beautiful. Sad, but beautiful. You don't have to be looking for love in all the wrong places
. . . 'love is always in your heart'. Well said.
Though you haven't profiled yourself yet . . . here we go, 'Possum', hmmm, 'Australia' . . . 'Mount Schoenstatt'
. . . (fire up Google) . . . ahh, New South Wales . . . definitely 'Australia'. :-)
Welcome to the circle. You'll like it here. You don't have to 'look around no more' . . . ;-)

Possum, I love your poem. Think I could relate to this. God loves you so much. Have faith, always, for
you will never be alone. He is always looking after for you. From libran88 | libran88 [30] | 12/02/2010 |
Possum, I like your poem. Listen with your heart and love is always there for you. Someone is looking

We never walk alone for with every step that we make, God is with us. Thanks, libran88. | Possum [134] | 13/02/2010 |
I believe in love, I believe in God through all eternity. Thanks, Anonymous. | Possum [134] | 13/02/2010 |
Just reread
I'd bet it's reality
That's what I felt
Just want to know
why you "spent the day looking for love"
why you had a "bleeding heart"
why you're "weeping openly"
I like the lesson of love in the end | m n m n I [313] | 28/02/2010 |
This poem was based on true facts. Every line was written the way it happened. And yes, the miracle
was real. Thanks, mnmnI. | Possum [134] | 07/03/2010 |
I like the last line...but the rest is just charming...
