To my PerceptionTo my Perception3 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Could such be real as this,
The four limbed flower,
With soul and potential,
Before me now with arms open?
Do these tired eyes,
Weary from the bags
That they carry without end,
Deceive by this blessing?
This oasis of a woman,
Who bears the love of Heaven,
Giving to me, it by a single kiss...
To my perception, I am awake...
I am awake and alive,
In the arms of this heart and soul.
Beneath the wings of grace,
Undeserved to a single bit of this.
She is real, to my perspective...
She is love, to my perception...
I am whole...
I am happy...

That doesn't mean I'll be showing up on your front porch
Waving a Bible in your face screaming "Have you heard?
Heard the Good News?"
Yes, I am a Christian.
That doesn't mean I'll condemn you to hell for drinking that glass of wine,
Telling you to treat your body like a temple and keep it pure.
Jesus Christ drank wine, didn't he?
Yes, I am a Christian.
That doesn't mean I'll be picketing your home, your work, your friends
Just because your beliefs don't agree with mine.
That's a little childish, right?
Yes, I am a Christian.
That doesn't mean that I devote my Sundays to God, turn off the phone,
