A Gold Cross Necklace

Shimmering gold reflecting off the sun.
It hangs from looped chains, encasing strength and power.
Curves so smooth with a body of a giving God.
The serene, sculptured item with
meanings and beliefs all conjoined,
behind this piece of lavish jewellery.

From first glance, our eyes grasp a sense of faith.
The neck where it lies, believes in the everlasting God.
Feeling it touch my skin,
shield me from uncertainty.
My heart knows that the devilish sphere that surrounds us,
can’t make me grieve.

Wanting this to stay and to hold.
Knowing He loves me.
I seek for guidance and recieve happiness.
This coiled metal and cross, sacrifices hope and grace,
To make me special and proud.
What lavish jewel could carry such a burden.
