The Leavening of the Soul

Character, as then a word
gathers or depletes ~ what is heard
times nuance, profiting as heard
the truth ~ or consequence' does readily invert!

Character ~ becoming known
the self to God, by His alone
no shortcoming, can meter less
the trial, becoming moment's press!

Character ~ for and against
a daily diary, no nonsense
as good and bad, the real invest
is in our spiritual hope's oneness!

Character ~ my mind's duress
does write it out, column's address
to keep the Faith, I must confess
my weakness, in this bonding's bless!

Character ~ the dough of time's redress
The Spirit of God . . . and Mans' mind's sense!
