Best Cornerstone Poems

Truth

Is the cornerstone of creation

Chosen by God himself 

For

The universe to build upon

Because 

Of its immutability!

If you wish, my dearest friend, as I do
A better world to build, let us build it together
And make it:
Juster
Kinder
Nobler.

Let us lay the foundations of that world that would be

Not only for you and for...

CORNERSTONE
See,
That stone,
By nadir marred,
By murk furred,
By haze cocooned,
Like a straw,
By gale of fate buffeted,
By tongues of skeptics, for

A pearl become.
By the hearth of cruel fate,
A gold with an...

I had a dream
But I dreamt it on clay
And it crumbled in the morning rain.

I envisioned still other dreams
Those reflected dimly on the surface of my desire

THE CORNERSTONE OF LIFE


Buildings must have cornerstones
So must each man's life
Those for buildings are made by man
But the one stone for your life is Christ

To withstand the storms that pass
Those with poor foundations
Never seem to last

If you are truly anchored
In the Cornerstone of...

Cornered in the corner of my eye a rainbow squares up its pastel
brushes gently against lightning encrypted in a cornea battered
dangles iridescent prisms of hope condensed on retinal shadows
and works its kind dreams into the eye of the grateful beholder...

His only painting still to remain
Queen Quenevere of Round Table fame-
For William's talents were by design
Beaux arts,furniture,all things fine
Fabrics,stained glass divine.

Divinity has chosen harmony as the cornerstone of cosmo's creation 

Thus 

Whatever we may think, say or do must aim at harmony's exaltation!

To care for her, quickly,
Attend, instantly;
This husband-like heart,
Wants her near:

A hug in my arms,
Is here, urgently;
This custom, of love,
I would share –...
