September Calm-N
It appears that September is all wrapped up,
tied tight, and intertwined throughout my blood.
I say this because inspiration for September has
never been so fluid, so gushing, and invigorating.
Like presently, I'm feeling the need for a bridge
to take my beloved country and my adopted state
across troubling waters. I need more that a temporary
seasonal bridge that operates between elections, only
to be proven worthless after two and four year intervals.
I need something and someone like September who's going
to stand by me, stand up for me, stand with me during the hard times.
Someone who's never going to give up until the sounding of the bell.
Someone who's going to restore common sense to politics and the
American way. Someone who's going to calm the agenda-driven winds of
'the great divide'. Yes, it would be great if we could cross this great expanse by 'walking on water', but only the Christ can do that. That is why I am
praying for a bridge on which to cross. I'm praying for something and someone so designated by The Almighty to get us across the great gulfs
so overheated as to stir up hurricane force cultural and social wars so
presently prevalent in our nation. O September, I have been anticipating
you, and now that you have arrived, I cannot thank you enough, because I see you as a bridge of confidence and hope. You are the warrior of peace
and poise. I know that you have been observing with great concern the grave doubts and fears. It's you, September, whom they and I have been waiting
for. We believe that you have a Divine appointment, and your calming presence is the hallmark of God's hand upon your life and season.
