NEEDING NURTURE

She fell out of the car
Naked on the ground
Folks looking on
Not breathing a sound

...mama.....mama
.............MAMA......I need you

Rushing to her side
She gathered her daughter
Whispering the LOVE
Flowing from her father

In an instant
A snap, then a bang
The cord of Endor cut
From the witches ring

Shall we tether humanity
To elements and crafts
Just for the hope
Of getting correspondence back
...from our parents

Rejection and perfection
Spin lies on that wheel
Assuring children to believe
Everything they feel

Silence is the iron rod
Separating desire from will
Following WISDOM is prudent
In the steadfast build
...of Kingdom

OH, but being held
Is nurturing to the soul
Reminding the heart to fall
On faith, when nothing can grow
