A PATH TO YOU: a sonnet

A PATH TO YOU: a sonnet


A path to You is what I strive to find,
So that I reach You ere my time is up.
I know that fathers are to children kind,
Please show Your kindness, fill my empty cup.

I walked the road of life as I thought fit,
I never bothered to fulfill Your wish.
Of this one hope I had been sure a bit
That without water You won't keep Your fish.

But now that my days seem to be but few,
I wish to disengage from this world now.
I want to change my direction anew,
So that I reach You and Your grace somehow.

I seek your pardon, Lord forgive my sins
And please make sure that Satan never wins.
