Breadth (written Dec 2008)

He has gone forth

and traversed the paths of the world

and sought out those things

the desires                         of his soul

 

to see the majesty of the land

         the work of those who labor

                  in their daily struggles 

who walk                    in flame              and in pain

 

and to preserve those things

in song           and moving pictures

so that others might

                            see as he sees

who can turn his course

his feet are firm set

 

                                 his focus is fixed

and he has stayed true to his path

                  who can move his heart

 

He understands himself

can another see him 

 

His fire smolders                   It is in his control

            His power is his own

 

a richly landscaped mind

                  the possibilities are endless

the depth and breadth of him 

                  is ceasless and endearing

My heart aches to explore him

                                  and mine the vastness of his mind

its expanse is awesome   a lifetime to reach into

 

all his nooks and crannies

 

                      May the sun rise

and shine upon all you do that is true

                      May you know that you

                       have brought beauty into my soul

and touched my heart

                       tenderness fills it

the only man who has moved me

from myself     my own circumspection

         to look upon his

 

no scriptures for this as its simply reflections
