A Poem in the Works

9/29/2016

We are a people
A called people
Called to differently live
Called to live the love
As seen
In Christ, alone; dying bleeding
Yet living once again
Called to something other, something else
Called bear the load and share the light
Called to bear the light and share the load
But. . .
Some are left fumbling in the dark
know not love
have not the ability to see
 left to bleed
Alone, laying in the road
Not a stranger or Samaritan in sight
Turning the world around them red
From their position they do not, can not know
what it means to rise just once
and never once again
No riches, nothing free
And so all there is 
to fumble, mumble, cry and die
Yet, we are a people called to share and bear and bring light
We wander off into the sun, shining our light
Shining light to those basking in the sun
Do not venture into the dark
Bringing the Light to all but some.
