Seed to Life and Living:


Adam and Eve given the key, entering into the law of the fruit of the tree.
Flawless as lambs they fell, imprudently, fruitless a man’s gullibility…
Within that thread throughout thousands of years,
curtailing the storms, adulating seed, spending endlessly the tears…

He has restrained, through His creation, the fall of man.
Creating the oceans, mountains, deserts, and dry lands.
All from his fingers, into the artists mind and soul,
to make a poet, a sculptor, a musician, or a painter to know.

Written inside that lonely place, in their heart and soul they go,
to quarry out that silver and gold, explaining and depicting all they have,
His story in love shall always be told…

He is the great “I Am” from the desert land, nestled in a cloud of the high great mountain:

He is the “Word” written by the first poet’s hand.
He is the sprit within each breath given to make every new man.
He is the drawing stretched across the earth’s face of dirt and sand.
He is the rock, that cornerstone which clutches the universe’s plan.
He is the grace for you and me.
He is the way, the truth, and the life to be…

From that principle, our ancestors knew, this seed was planted, died, then grew.
The fruit of the tree of life, that tree now free, for you and me…

She said: ”You look cute in the dark.”

I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

Whewww, I must be extraordinarily sensative today, cause this one's got me sobbing.  JL, what a tremendous right/write...filled with so much heart and soul...each and every line jam packed with God's eternal breath..given to you, to put on paper, you are and have been truly blessed.  

So, there you have it, my constructive critique for the day...and adding...thank you JL, for a lovely vision and song, to carry me on my way.  Love to you and yours...Lee J.
