Immerse Me

Posted on by Cara

Immerse me, O Lord, In you… In you… In you… I wither like an uprooted plant Aching for a few drops of moisture and The womb of soil around my roots. I awake in the night mourning, bewildered As I wander half aware in impassive darkness. It enfolds me, amplifying the feel of your absence […]

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

It seems there is some reason Why we celebrate this season But from all the lights and jingles Frequent mentions of Kris Kringle Seems that most folks now just don’t remember There are other holidays now That are mentioned (don’t offend now) But I’m standing on my tiptoes Shouting truth that everyone knows If it […]
