Three Crows and a Hawk

three crows and a hawk,
flying together
sounds like a cartoon

get your claws in this one
a sign of the times
my mind sees such things
written in the sky

on October 7th,
my birthday,
i was celebrating
in a Christian conference
with a roomful of women

hands open
praising the Lord
oblivious of happenings
in Israel

i saw baby Jesus
in my hands
felt the weight of Him

then He turned
into Jesus
off the cross
as if I was holding
him
like Mary

of course
i pondered this
days later

i thought of the babies
killed
in the time of Moses

i thought of the babies
killed
in the time of Jesus

Rachel’s tears,
she can not be comforted

once again
an attack on babies…

so what comes next?

the rapture…
the antichrist…
judgement…

Fall to our knees
Make things right with God
Do right
Love one another
even love your enemy
That is how good
God is

Man is often the beast
God is much more merciful
than man…
