I have dressed myself in riches like a lily clothed in gilt; golden thread and silver stitches cover velvet, cover silk. I’ve adorned myself in fineries, but I cannot trick your eye. Naked underneath these vineleaves, I have prayed you’ll pass me by. Do not turn, O God of Eden, in the cooling of the day here to seek me.
Lovely. Your poetry is always complete--rhythm, meter, rhyme, word choice, vocabulary, message, modern application. You are a wordsmith and allow your light to shine before women and men.
For some reason, although the song has a different emphasis, I think it’s a nice echo to your breathtaking verse of beautiful brokenness. Thank you so much for these. Your words nourish the soul. “Beautiful words; wonderful words; wonderful words of life!”
A simply beautiful prayer. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you!
