Life Without Poetry
Life without poetry???
listen to the
list of losses---
Loss of poetry
leaves
literature bereft of grandeur and
lacking with
limitless wealth...
...leading
love-messages
lurk in dark vexatious boredom...
...letting poets
lament while
lingering in their niche...
...longing for
light glowing with
liberating hope midst
lilting assurance of...
...life’s lessons from the heart worth
listening to and
learning from.
Lord God Almighty even has His
law* exposed
loaded with
language poetically expressed as
looking glass against
lies and deceit...
...likewise as
lamp toward
liberty of the spirit...
...loosing souls
languishing in guilt while
launching out stewardship unto
lifting-up divine service devoid of
lofty selfish arrogance.
Life then is
linked to poetry!
*Psalm 19:7 The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
