You are My Son. "The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it." NIV Genesis 2:16 As I look in my mirror at my reflection Who is this stranger I see? Looking back at me White dots in blue eyes sparkling bright with infection Cast in hot bubbles of a boiling stormy sea. My feet were gently, firmly, planted on soft earth As I began to gently retire from worry Who are you, I ask? Why are you pulling my birth? Into far stars of heaven, above galaxies. I soar upward as if I have no gravity And yet, when I look at my body very frail There is no way I could obey this call to me As God in heaven sends a call for me to sail. And so my Spirit leaves my body far behind To romance with God and heavenly angels there In far off blue in rainbow hue drinking God's wine As I go swinging, singing shouting ev'ry where. Who are you, I ask my bright mirror on my wall I am your Lord God in you, Son. Rise up! Stand tall. You are My Window! Go now! Shine My Love to all. You are My Son.

Newell, I was beginning to become concerned by some of your other works. This one, however, is very well done |

Interloper. Concerned? I try to write all sides of ev'rything. There's no idea that I will not explore in poetry. And contrary to what people think, I'm not preaching. Just trying to motivate other people to search for truth to apply in their one lives. And I experiment with many forms and ways of packaging poetry. Don't know why you'd be concerned. But I am glad you like this one.
