Find Me

                    Find me
	    in the 	        sea full 
	of empty 	        shells.
	They are 	        bones over 
   Noah’s 			         burnt vessel,
    ashes 			         of gopher, 
Calvary’s 			         wood the
	 timeless 	        ark and 
	rungs on 	        Jacob’s ladder.
      Moor your 	        might to 
	my truth 	        and blink 	
	your eye.	        Before 		
	  you are 	        adrift 
	in Luke’s 	        gulf, 
		     find me.

Beautiful Rob. It speaks to me, though I am not on 'terra firma' with the bible. It reads very well with and without the references. Congratulations, Kai
