*In Present Awe...*

[Martyr's Crown]

I wrote this poem sometime in my early 20s. I felt as sharing this one with you in here, there may perhaps be some small mistakes here and there, but since I wrote this quite some time ago I won't change it. Not all of the poems I share are very recent, the two first ones I shared are very recent written ones. But I think it is also nice to share from my earlier poems too. I find it a bit funny I used the sentence soul clink in this poem here, I wanted to find something which rhymed with King.

*In Present Awe...*

I lift up my voice to the throne,
in present awe for my King.
My words, actions and deeds are all known,
tunes from my heart I do bring.

I bow my face down to the ground,
in present awe for my King.
Peaceful silence touches me all around,
quiet praises open up it's wing.

I fall down on my knees,
in present awe for my King.
Hearing those powerful words I miss,
weeping beautiful worship from my soul clink.

I open up my heart in glorious might,
in present awe for my King.
Salvation isn't dark but bright,
my mind makes my mouth sing.

In present awe for my King,
worship from my heart I bring.
In present awe for my King,
joyful praises from my soul I sing.

Wow, that's beautiful. Maybe you should present it to a Christian music group, it would make a great song.

Thank you. That's a very nice compliment.

Crowned Princess ~ I enjoyed this poem. It ministers a lot. "Soul clink" is powerful imagery. That jumped out at me and also, "my mind makes my mouth sing."

Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed reading it. If I remember it correctly I thought of clink the same way as a door clink. Haha! When reading the definition it means some different things, although it could also have been a fine way of seeing it too. Though this definition of it:

clink
(klɪŋk)
vb
to make or cause to make a light and sharply ringing sound

I like this definition and it is also one which might fit a lot better with what I wrote in this poem as well.?

Nice knowing that this sentence "my mind makes my mouth sing" had a good effect on you too.

I often hear "clink" with reference to jail doors shutting or a prisoner's handcuffs snapping. Which can only mean we are glad prisoners of the Christ--his cheerful servants.

That's also a very nice way of seeing it! Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
