God Gets My Words

 

I confess, Lord, that I don’t always catch the proper meaning of your Word. You never miss the true meaning of my words. For that, I’m grateful.

  1. There is not much I can say
    to God, or anyone,
    about this awful path, the way
    that I have come undone.
    The people who are closest here
    smile and nod and shrug.
    Sometimes I see a furtive tear,
    or they offer me a hug.
    But this is not the meaning,
    and life’s last message’s lost.
    There has come a gleaning,
    at a terrible cost.
    I wish they had the ears to listen
    to stars as they forbear to glisten.

      You, Andrew, have a way with words. And I get your words. I think. At least some of the time. Thank you.
