Incandescent

Wrath wraps me in sweet rhapsody
When I think of heaven’s arch enemy
Glowing in flames eternally
Once, archangel, now his wings cut to the quick

One copious moment, a sea of blue
Will be a vehement final view
Should these eyes spy a one of you
Whose light was blinded by his shroud of tricks

Life is free, come with me
Share this brilliance that I see
Within my burning flames, dwells He
One day, this flesh from soul, grace will unstick

Where no dusk falls or twilight breaks
No more deciding what’s fact and fake
No more the odds and higher stakes
Just virgin love in flames of light, void of all panic

Napowrimo “now for our optional prompt. If you’ve been paying attention to pop-music news over the past couple of weeks, you may know that Taylor Swift has released a new double album titled “The Tortured Poets Department.” In recognition of this occasion, Merriam-Webster put together a list of ten words from Taylor Swift songs. We hope you don’t find this too torturous yourself, but we’d like to challenge you to select one these words, and write a poem that uses the word as its title.

About Mary (tqhousecat)

I am married, and a mother of two grown children. I love Jesus and sharing my faith through written words. My poetry is on my blog and you can find some previous stories on Medium and linked-in. My focus is hope in Christ. My desire is that whoever reads this will be blessed, inspired, occasionally amused, kind, and patient to my growth in Christ as He conforms me to His image.
