Been Around

I've been around words and I know how to play with them I can put together anything from a punchline to an anthem Not of my own making though I'm made for the making But like a cuisine sizzling, steaming, marinating You know Shakespeare lived then and I now With word in season and skill to wow Imagine how much more God holds To endow many more men before time folds And you are such as is endowed as I But you suppress, downplay or are shy To be seen as too Godly for conventions So you surrender fulfilment by many concessions Play your game like fire is fanned from a flame Bring out the mystery that brings the wild to tame Let the gift leave them wondering how and why Let comprehension fall too low for the Most High When we bring out the treasure in our earthen vessels With indelible works which time never wrestles K.
