Seedling Truth

Tuesday

Time for devotion

Because there’s no

Holy reason telling us

To do so

x

We heard

And we hear

Sermons to the birds

And they rejoin

x

Bible studies

With the ocean

Ascensions at the mountain top

And then come down

To the veiled valley

Below

Most of us inhabit

x

Where we must live

Until our gospel says

It’s time

x

Our seasons tell us

Heat gives way to color

Then succumbing cool

To cold

x

We rest

And now it’s time

To rest

Until we all come back

Green blades

Rising

Songs’ abiding promises

To spring

Remaining

Up here

Circling

Until your gospel says

Forever
