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.
