Babylonian Beauty

28 March 2006


In the heart of Babylonia
her beauty resistant to stand
An angel over Toronto
this present gifted of God

Her being - her softness to surrender
genetically modified in Christ
Her part in his living
His crown - she proudly
wears upon her soul

Blessed is she
that gives the Lord’s hand
This touch - this glory to love

Her tears a strength of even
those hanging baskets of floral elegance
Her eyes - her smile - as if said before
poetic - nature - a Babylonia to adore


“Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for
when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life,
which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.”
James 1:12 KJV



a poet who cares
