When shall we be one
Words slip through my hands;
life crumbles like wet sand, and
I, sit still, and sob.
My tender heart bleeds -
at injustice near and far,
that one can't carry.
We were to be, one
family of God, and yet -
we are cattle, caged.
When will the world see?
We are united through love,
that is Christ Jesus!
Why do we live blind,
when we each have eyes to see -
and ears to hear Him?
Lord may my weeping,
be a prayer unto you, God.
'Heal our broken hearts'
Make us a body -
of Christ again, pure and right -
unto you, always.
(A collection of Haikus)
