Spirit begins…first songs passed on…link arms. We’re knit…as one…one voice of saints syncing. Our praise is wind. It winds through all of time. We raise our arms on earth; from there love flows. With kin we rode the ark and now speak life. Our instruments, one breath…Yahweh…seeking.** With limbs, we stand up tall, tethered to wings. High hymns amplifying the one true God. Trumpet resounds - His voice, in heaven seeks, and begets ears and hearts, with seven eyes.* Spirit begins…first songs passed on…link arms. We’re knit…as one…one voice of saints syncing. *Seven symbolizes completion. God’s eyes are everywhere **Yahweh (God’s name) Draw breath in “Yah,” let it out, “weh.”

Unity in belief. I feel the strength in your poem. I learned much with the footnotes at the bottom.
