Divinely Favored

Ashley Ayala 1995 (Louisiana)

Free verse
Transgressions galore;
I don't wish to explore.
Newfound spiritual-
Understanding;
Reiterated by knowing,
The truth-
Of which;
Is simple as this;
It is He who sets
Us free.
What is meant to be
Will be,
Stay true to see
The miracle to be
Just believe
That He
Delivers incessantly,
Infinitely, and triumphantly,
Be glad to be
From He.
