shame and sorrow mingle in the wine of grief
broken words split and splattered from their egg shells irretrievable
deed of disdain denial of the holy despicable
bravado failing in the line of fire
gutsy guts punctured in the day of reckoning
harassed hunted heavy hearted
oh that the earth would cover this nakedness
that the mountains would hide this wretchedness
let the heights collide eclipse o sun…
catching a glimpse of me he stumbled and struggled beneath the heavy yoke
breathing a prayer for this weary pilgrim worn by quilt
engaged by his gaze enthralled by the deep wells of compassion
endless ocean of mercy too deep for words
rejuvenated forgiven I raced to the upper room
deep silence Long quiet bonding and bundled
waiting
suddenly in the sound of rushing roaring racing tsunami
arriving like a thunderbolt quaking, quickening, overwhelming
fanning embers of devotion to flame
sheep with a loin’s heart i became
ready to risk all for the one I love
