My Thoughts--
my thoughts if I was a fly on the wall, would I be like God and observe things
light on the wall, waving my hands and arms
Or would I be still as a mouse, not trying to be caught
my thoughts if I was a clock on this self same wall
Would I talk would my language be tick tock-tic tock
or just tic tic tic tic tic or would I just be illuminated silent
If I were a bird on a tree just sitting quietly on the branch of a tree
What would become of me would I just light here or fly away
my thoughts are
I am a fly
I will stand tall
I am clock
I will tell time
I will sit strong I will show light
I will be strong I won't run out
I am a bird on a tree
I won't leave this branch unless the branch leaves me
I am
Of God
And God created me
more than a fly, a clock on the wall or a bird in the tree
I stand for God
for God stood for me He and Jesus stands my thoughts?
