I'll sleep in tomorrow's frost
and make haste of the night
bid me farewell
let me know what it is I seek
and uncap the wealth of knowledge
that seeks me out in hopeful
acquisition
God is reaching for me
a million hands of love
he holds out
I am a quiet accepter
like one small hill among
the great mountains of time
theres so much to express
but my vessel is so small
I'm trying to drain a lake
with one drinking straw
or there the like
the mind recognizes the brain's limits
but it is diligent in the 'Path Of Steps'
commanding itself to adhere to such
constant searching
shall the water that islands my quest
storm or grow still
it is not for me to know
the hand of God upon my back
is all I need to care about............
