Guiding Voice - Poem

As I prepared to write a poem this week, despite having baselines and key words for many concepts, nothing yet seemed to fit; the concepts were to fragile, to fragile to even start writing and building upon. But as I began to wonder how to start one concept or key word entered my mind and started branching out, taking shape, forming into a beautiful, sweet idea.

The idea? Hearing G-ds voice despite the hustle and bustle of life, despite the noise, despite the pressure.

So, I began to write. After writing the majority of the piece, I took a break and upon returning to my phone, completed the full poem, all boxes ticked, all ideas shared, ready to be posted for all of you to enjoy.

So, that is what I hope. I hope you enjoy the read.

All the very best,

Guiding Voice - Poem

Life moves fast,
The world speeds up and down,
Seconds run, disappearing into oblivion,
It's hard to focus, on even just one sound.

But there is one sound, one call,
That makes everything feel right again,
Focusing becomes easy, life slows for a while,
As I listen to His voice, my Father, Hashem.

Guiding me with love, showing me my road,
Helping me through the obstacles on the path,
Pushing away the naysayers, those who don't believe,
Allowing me to reach my goal, master my craft.

His voice echoes in my prayers,
As I thank Him for everything and so much more,
Fearless I am now, when I am faced with rejection,
Because on the other side I know, he's waiting, Holding open the door.

His call beckons me forward on,
One step after another, towards greatness,
Guiding me towards infinity,
A voice, a father's voice, waiting for His children.
