Of Grace Learn

18 October 2006


The man in the mirror,
the man who knows.
The beautiful man,
to tickle your toes.

Your smile, your beautiful;
the model of a perfect look.
Just you, just me, and happiness,
this path you and I choose to took.

I love you, and hope you will love me,
this man in the mirror, the one smiling to sea.
An ocean across, a place of navigation,
where finding one another was God’s word.
Know my name, know my voice,
listen to my kindness as to that heard.

The man in the mirror, the man who knows.
The beautiful man, to tickle your toes.
As he smiles, and seeks your smile in return,
of one another, and this foundation of amour.
This way in each other, we do
of grace and patience learn.


"Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity,
than he that is perverse in his lips, and is a fool."
Proverbs 19:1 KJV
