Blessed Are the Meek
“Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the Earth.”
------ Matthew 5:5
Maybe
you want to be back there
in your happy place,
back when,
back then -
backwards to happiness,
or maybe you look to happiness
in the future,
a maybe,
a wish,
a hope, a heaven.
Yet it was those times
when you were
not aware you were content,
happy
or at peace with yourself,
those not knowing times
when not thinking about
happiness or unhappiness;
just letting life happen.
Those were the meekly expressed
timeless times
when you were
what you are now -
this image of God.
That is when your Meekness
inherited
a perfect Earth.
