Sail

Sail cloudless day

Salt cloudless sky

Skim sunset blue

Glisten grain

for skin

Bow blade

cut through

Stirring

Ancient salve

 

Ocean Drink

Soak your soul

Reinvigorate

Bathe up 

into the light

Shed in an instant the old

Now: Always only

Eternal clothes for you

 

~~~

 

Splendour, Joy and Peace

 

Dream

Big

Dream biggest

Greater than the

Highest hope

Yet

Dwarfed

By bright

Imaginings

Failing to see

The wide eternal

 

For finite

Feet set here

See confined, linear

 

The Eternal  

Arcs high

And away

Unbounded

Limitless

Grace

 

All the words written are true”….

 

Then, we shall fully see:

Splendour

Joy

and

Peace

 

 

~~~

 

New creation

This creation

New

Free of decay

 

This creation

New

No longer ill

 

This creation

New

Rid of harm

And greed

 

This creation

New

Pure

Without pollution

 

This creation

New

Without taint

Of sin

 

This creation

New

Without dispute of land

 

This creation

New

Where

Swords do no harm

(Aways plowshares)

 

This creation

New

With Persons at peace

With God and with one another

 

This creation

New

Neverending

 

This creation

New

 

Here:

Christ

The captain

The king

The helm

The sun

 

Here:

Peace

Joy and awe

Of Him

 

This creation

Bought by him

New

Life

As you always knew it should be

 

You

 

Free

 

~~~

 

New life

 

Today

Not just then

(Far and away

In time and space)

But in this place

 

Your being made newness

Life-eternal

Starts Now

 

How amazing

He

Would want to walk the

Way with us

In the midst of the world still gray

Surrounding us with sweet perfume

Accompanying us

Holy

In days

Temporal

The divine walking

With us

Brushing us up

The road

Leaving

The clay-mud of earth behind

Washed bright in the rain
