TIMBRE OF MY SOUL

With LOVE you formed my heart
With patience you formed my soul
With WORD you established truth
With Spirit you made me whole

My wonky body has always brought pain
Lopsided and cowlicked mane
I've wobbled about from side to side
Finding every little crevice where I could hide

With grace you set my flow
With forgiveness I let it all go
With resilience I got back on my feet
With or without a mirror, I accept me

My anointed walk from matter to LOVE
My dreams and visions yielded and still
My yesterdays and tomorrows are gone
My "IS," in REVELATION, heaven's seal

My timbre plays the timbrel and I rejoice

Me too. Everyone has a vibration, a color, and a scent. The universe needs all working to create beauty and wonder in rhythm of life.
