worth
northwest corner
it was my bedroom
where after a setback
i wept and cried out
against the opposing direction
that consumed my hopes
a dream with a bow
came and sowed
a seed planted
a seed grown
"removing siding,
replacing with brick"
the words settled in
like a needles prick
always my patience
shorter than His
dreams ignite in me
fizzled, left for rotten
Behold
returning in surprise
down a hill as I drive
12 years gone by
a purchase already made
northwest corner
once again
once again
my head lay
hope present I feel it risin'
what He said to me
yet unexpected happens
hope deferred repeats
Is Your heart surety?
cue cuts at the autopsy
a quiet room, w/ just you and me
and my invisible soul's hearing
The Author
say to me
the blueprint is a map
the journey a mystery
the journey a mystery
Faith birthed this time
in the land of the living
in the land of the living
