An Expected Tragic Deathblow?

Jah Jehovah,

You are
by majestically far
the most brilliant mind
I or anyone can know.

Your exquisite creations
minute to great

fantastically shows…

a snowflake
an earthquake
a firefly
how fiery lava flows.

Whirlpools.
Geysers.
Northern lights.

Wise words ancient bestowed.

Your heart
is like the sun to us–

warms us
‘just’ enough
to keep us living,
growing,
loving,
forgiving,

by glorious rays
presented as ‘gifts’
consistently

though the ‘haughty’
your works

arrogantly rebuff

with ungrateful
actions

greedily
creating an environment
causing an exterior
on interiors

called

‘callus’
‘rough’ or
‘tough’.

However, in you
many are
instilled to ‘trust’–

as that bright
full ‘faithful’ moon
glowing

during increasingly turbulent nights
aplenty.

We are seeds
sown under immense adversity,

so we must petition you:

Water us through-in-through
by your intense fatherly pleasure
with ‘truths’ to protect us

even as we whither to death.

Seemingly
‘hopeless’
beyond lamentable measure.

Bring us back
in spring.

Resurrect us

with a newness
to now set our imaginations
into being–

afire…Aglow.

Remind us of your purpose
with profound ‘pearls’
sought and purchased

as ‘priceless’ treasures

to endure
our varied woes.

***

“Your dead will live.
My corpses will rise up.

Awake and shout joyfully,
You residents in the dust!

For your dew
is as the dew of the morning,

And the earth
will let those powerless in death

come to life.” Isa. 26:19.

***

Let not
‘hatred’

deal humankind

an expected
tragic

deathblow…

Wisdom for Life and Happiness
