Shane Brown Poet Rhyme

Born Again

(In Law and Spirit)

To take one’s heart, 
And meld it with another, 
Is the perfect place to start, 
When sharing with a brother. 

To break one’s heart, 
In the service of each other, 
Is to perfect the hidden part, 
Which cries out for a Father.

No one has the trust of any, 
Like a father and son, 
For in the eyes of many, 
This world would be undone. 

If not for mentors now, 
On our earthly home abode, 
We would never humbly bow, 
But be strangers to our load. 

But to find in us ourselves, 
And carry what we cross, 
We must know as do the Twelve, 
And ever count the cost. 

Oh Lord we love the ones we hold, 
While on our journey home, 
And long to be as in days of old, 
When before on earth to roam. 

But lightened on a brighter path, 
For hence our pathway trod, 
We'll receive all that our Father hath, 
And never depart the iron rod.

(Iron rod depicts the Word of God)
