Smell of ash
Fills the grate
Long after the fire
Long after the warm
It stays to remind
To fill a longing hole
It lies
Ash has no love
No happy clappy warmth
It just sits
Cold
Smell of pine
Fills the room
Tall needles permeate
Tall branches flourish
It comes to speed up
To make us all busy
It lies
Pine has no love
It is withering, dying
It just dies
Slow
Sound of babe
Fills the air
Angels shout
Shepherds run
Quick to see
Fast to witness
Truth arrives
Word becomes flesh
Long journey – heaven to earth
Incarnate Emmanuel
Love
"Oh! that the power of God would set my heart and pen at liberty while writing, and fill your hearts while reading, that we may rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory." (John Newton)
It is all about words. Your words are enough to shatter someone's heart. Your words are enough to make a broken heart unbroken. Words have the power to change your life perspectives.
