unto Yahweh call

.

     Cast not to me the rose colored
                hearts poets blurt

          or thoughts of coolness
           from Appalachian falls

               or drinks that fog
                     mine mind

            Just fastened hands
                  bowed heads
                     and mawz
                         unto
                      Yahweh
                         call




*Uncle James will miss you Brandon !

Bravo! I pray so much I don't even do the head bowed with hands together anymore... it's more like a free flowing text message to God at this point! lol!! Hugs and many smiles on your delightful poetry my friend. I always enjoy reading you.

If Godly beliefs are true, and they are, Brandon is in a wonderful place. You will see him again and rejoice together.
