The Table

Men of substance I implore you Rise early Come gather around me I have no ears with which to judge you Allow your ideas to resonate Vibrate within my core Bounce from my surface Come to life I was formed for a Holy purpose Placed in this room Enclosed within these walls A host for your imaginations A silent witness to community Men of substance Think each others thoughts Breathe spiritual breath Allow me to be your Altar Join your hands Bow your heads Be thankful Blessed and courages I am your silent witness Made for this time For this purpose I welcome you My honored guests

Thanks Shadow. I meet with a group of men once a week at the back of a Deli here in Kelowna. This was my inspiration.
