My King. a Poem For Mckye Caleb Strickland

From the first glance inside of me
I smile as I hear your heart beat
So amazed and anxious to meet you
My King.

As I hold you in my arms
I pray for God to shield you from harm
An anointed spirit has come through me
My King

Grow tall my son. Let the wind guide you
Consume all you can. Walk with the heavens beside you
Offer all that you are. Show all that you bring
My King. 

Let your presence shine in the midst of darkness
Don't fear. Be strong. God has already grown your harvest
Make your story a song for the angels to sing
My King.

Although young in age my King
There's a man growing in your soul my King
Preparing for a journey of life to unfold
For...
All to know you
All to learn from you 
All to seek in you

My King
