He Never Wanders.

He Never Wanders.

A Poem by Zach

 Would you leave my mind for a moment?
Such brevity with such release!
(but dear, i'm not strong enough for such Peace!)

Like two mites crawling on the window,
red in heart with well-read eyes,
(never would we be 'surprised')

Wandering off our own vibrations,
on glass that always seemed so clear.
(but never would it disappear!)


I found you in the tall grass;
Holding each other's hands as the lawnmower passed.
As two ants you were without sight,
be still My children, My faith is light.


One time we were noiseless baby birds,
without a voice to cry out.
(but, oh! how our spirits did shout!)

In a nest far above the world,
we knew we were set apart.
(and how much love You really are!)

So hold your tongue, my sweetheart.
There's little repose in crying.
(for soon we'll both be flying!)

I found you in the tall grass;
Holding each other's hands as the lawnmower passed. 
As two ants you were without sight,
be still My children, My faith is light.

(Let us be the fourth leaf to Your clover.
Oh, Holy Father,
draw us closer.)

I really liked this poem. The poem has an innocence to it that slowly drew me in. The poem is full of comforting ques like:

"One time we were noiseless baby birds,
without a voice to cry out.
(but, oh! how our spirits did shout!)"

...I could see those outstretched necks and beaks clamoring to be fed. Great metaphor of the hunger of the spirit. This is a transformative poem! I really enjoyed this...its going to my favs!
