A poem called: 'The Bridegroom is Delaying'

My God
My love
The highest king above;
Loftier than the highest tower
I pray I may escape that final hour.

The radiance of your face,
Surpasses the beauty of even the choicest flower.
Dates come and dates go,
Man's transitory nature,
A yearning to know that which is reserved for our creator.

A moments hesitation
The bridegroom is delaying,
Some's faith is wavering.
Not me oh Lord,
May it never be.
Your promise and your gift still stand
That is my destiny.
I hope that those meek of heart
Shall forever also be free.

The confines of this mortal life;
70, 80 years, no doubt filled with strife.
No one better, no ones worse,
We all live in this wondrous universe - 
Don't fixate on the material purse.
Come to understand your souls worth!

An eternal gift to traverse heaven's skies,
From He that said,
'The fire is never quenched and the worm never dies.'

### If my poems resonate with you please consider following my good friend @mhm-philippines and kindly let him know in the comments section of [this post](https://steemit.com/milestone/@mhm-philippines/10-sbd-to-one-winner) that you were made aware of his profile because of @galacticvagabond. He is trying to reach 1000 followers and he has left his life in the western world as well as all the comforts that come with it to spread the word of God and bring hope to the poor. This man and his wife are a living example of what it means to be 'Christ-like' and he has a mixture of content from Biblical thoughts to breathtaking photographs taken all across his country of residence, the Philippines.
