He who turns His words
into gold, Almighty God
offers them freely.

Deception begins,
the days's coffee cup empty,
the first step outside
I put on a happy smile,
negativity I hide.

A shortage appears
full shelves disappear, panic
scrounging and hoarding
reach for a new higher price
and it's time for something else.

In need of mercy,
why is it my constant state,
I shove sin aside,
or at least I surely try,
yet it clings to me like skin.

dangerous as that may be,

Rain like a river
overflowing thick cloud banks,
saturating gloom
will the storm last forever
or stop somewhere short of doom?

Ability used,
giving your all, the best try
adding a prayer
steeped in faith that God is there,
a million dollars can't top.

What of Matthew 4:19
A sea of regrets
the sleepless mattress torpor
freezing us in ice
outside the fisherman's net
that few disciples can catch.

Snipping the dead branch
the gardener does not mourn,
for the tree gains strength
and afterwards blossoms abound
producing fruitful blessings.

The wilderness heath,
the poor offering abounds,
manna for the ass,
wanderer of waste places,
can it be true one desire?

When the sadness parts
cerulean warblers chirp
as blue skies prevail,
morning dew shines in the sun
til the moon bathes us with love.

Feeding the nations
farmers rise before dawn,
oft mocked as backwards
they keep pushing earth forward
with mouthfuls of lovely grain.

Shallow thinking thrives,
the spirit weak and dieing,
our guidance system
discovered in the garden,
hissing words deny wisdom.

Missiles and drones strike
making a point as war looms,
we are all willing,
our fearful sabers have grown,
the big show means certain death.
