Here in the shadow of Your wing
I am safe
Safe to rejoice
Safe to weep and mourn
Here in the shadow of Your wing
I am secure
Secure in my future
Secure from the former things
Here in the shadow of Your wing
I will rest
Rest in peace
Rest in harmony and grace
I seek You and I find love
Here in the shadow of Your wing

At dVerse Poets Pub today, Victoria is calling for poems about feathers, wings, or birds. At first I was going to write about bald eagles, which remind me of my mom. But then when I went to get lunch the song “Shadow of Your Wings” by Casting Crowns came on my iPod in the car and it gave me the idea for this poem instead.
