Robert L. Martin

Wholeness

Wholeness
 
Affliction to the body
As well as to the soul
Intensifies when unheeded
 
When it is thought as being
A mortal wound, to seek
A timely cure is
The proper remedy
To make the
Body whole again
With faith in the Almighty
Being its convalescence
 
A healthy mind, body
And soul is
One more step
Toward Godliness
