Poem
I have poured out my heart like water But only those understanding will see I have laid the grief of the children before the King appointed to be I have studied each fragile connection and the way that men hurt their own the shield and the scars sealed deeply and left too many hearts without home Slave to traditions and teachings don’t taste don’t touch and don’t care Ten thousand things that you shouldn’t of ideological stoning beware But none can follow examples of courses they don’t understand but let’s flay them alive with blazing and their lives let’s mark with a brand When learning you to walk upright when you fell were you beaten and shamed if just now you are learning to do right is it just when you fall to be framed In the gentle stillness in movement softer than a breeze pictures of their future the rest of man at ease And tender are the Words that coax the fragile shoots whose mildness alights the growth of goodly fruits Your promises have held me and voice mine ears carress in delicate expressions which avows your loves address You have drawn us with affection with persuasions clearly pure assurances of a truthful pledge of a love that will endure In earnest is your bestowal the announcements of your speech in readiness to accomplish to divulge the heart you teach The essence of your compassion the ardor of your intent the center of our being to its enlargement are we bent We waded through embankments and rivers did we ford sought for the precious things what is the Truth of Lord You are the Sun the Moon the Rain the energy that creates growth the spirit who supports all Life and to save it given oath We will forever turn to you and happily throw our crown prostrate in humble gratitude For the Love within have found sources : Psalms Proverbs Ecclesiastes COPYRIGHT © 2012 C Michael Miller via Duboff Law Group LLC
