The River Agape

The River Agape I float in the "inspiration" of your charity Lord, Flowing from Agape - Your intimate "whispering" flowing through living water Touching thirsting shores of drought Waiting open mouthed for billowing water To sink in the warm depths of your "passionate" "prayers" Your tender path out of grieving exile Your hopelessly romantic "heart" Invading every vein and channel not pierced with arrow s But downy feathers Reflecting the sunrise of Heaven In feisty "courage" for the "healing" of the nations "Reflecting" in the leaves falling tenderly From the trees nourished by the River of Life Metaphoric essence "home" of the river’s source Going down into a gently swirling playful blue Ludic To rise up among orange petals of Agape In your greening open hand Storge "love" For brothers and sisters Gathered in your timeless vault of starlit realms Or still wandering in dark dusty chaos – An invitation to float as one body Agape. 4-30-21 Contest: Agape Love Sponsor: Regina McIntosh healing, whispering, heart, inspiration, love, prayers, passionate, home, courage, reflecting
