alsatian

Alsatian
1-28-16

In Alsace of East France
In your face another belly dance
Where the story teller speaks
Much is revealed
New therefore gone
Pledges and polish off rough edges
To my master Assyrian's king
To thee I dance and sing
And another Alsatian goes hunting
Sailor coming out again
That's how it stands today
For he who sows to his flesh reap corruption
The new life as a beneficience
As we have opportunity
Let us do good to all....




Millrace
1-28-16

Plowing into Ephesians
Its theme: the church
Christ's body
The ear hath need of the foot
Come true believers' standing in grace
In the heavenlies our prayer of knowledge and power
And soon another snow shower
I hope we have seen the worst of it
Sullen wings of fortune beat like rain
For dispensation and stewardship
If he calls again talk to him
For the summary of adoption and nonattachment
According to the good pleasure of his will
Wake up!






The Day I Felt Exalted
1-28-16

Which he purposed in himself
The mystery of his will
It's up to you
The way we think
Fog horns blowing in the night
Another millstone that serves as my milestone
For Old English and Black Letter
The radiance on your face
The mill-run of the unexpected
Seeking out Melancthon
Our leader of German reformation
And the heritage of my spiritual grandfather
Down at the coffee house and another Champollion
Relax your mind and let these words flow, O so effortlessly
Blessed be the God and father of our Lord
Jesus Christ sailing for some other shore
Where we can be what we want to be....
