Magpie Tale #50 entitled Just Look Up

Lord,
I feel as though I've lost
 my first love.
I've grown cold
and indifferent
to Your voice.

My soul is lost in this lonely place,
a  frozen wilderness-
and I don't know where to turn.

Look up, daughter. Just look up.

    Welcome to Magpie! Lovely thoughts.

    (For some reason you linked to a post from October of last year, but no worries, I corrected it!)

    It's easy to feel lost, that's for sure. Last line is perfect ending- love your poem, Debora!
