A Bottle of Wine To the Blind

I wonder how beautiful a rainbow looks Through the eyes of a color-blinded As it shines and comes down from the heaven Taming the raging cry of the storm, as to brindle…It down For those who can see its wonder, believes the beauty-ness of it But God said “Blessed are those who has not seen and yet believes” Once I was blind and looked out unto the world with my eyes closed I am not talking about the physical eyes but of the faith of the heart The spirit of our very soul that binds the realm of Heaven and Earth It’s the light that shines to embrace the true alliance of brotherhood So that all men/ women, alike, be enlightened and be-reborn-divine For as those who hunger and thirst, God gives His bread and wine For that is what a rainbow looks like through the eyes of a believer For whatever mystery life unfolds, faith provides a different mold By birthright, through faith; we are the children of the son of God Just imagine, you, seeing the image of the true purification of self The spirit-life that lives in Jesus, is the same spirit that flows in you The only thing that’s keeping you from being this to that is the Word It’s time to eat and to open the bottle of His wine and to drink upon it Let the Word of God be the quencher of your thirst, once and for all God loves us so much; He sent His only son to save us from our sin It’s because of our inequities and our transgressions; why He died But God’s graceful nature raised Him up, so we can be born again As to see the world as just the beginning of the beauty of a rainbow By: Wilbert Dela Cruz 6-7-16
