Most of my poetry/prose tends to be secular, so I am glad to find a home to post Christian verse as well.
A woman changed
@2001 The Simple Plan
What was it about him
That endeared her to stop and listen
For just a moment
Placing her jar on the floor
He knew about her pain
And her attempt to find love
Which through failure meant duplicity
In a succession of failed
relationships
In his eyes were love not lust
A desire to give her peace
Not wanting a piece
Like so many others before him
In short simple words
He removed a burden
Lightened her spirit to the point
She forgot about her water
She left him totally changed
And so selfless and refreshed
She had to tell someone else
About this true love
