How Good It Is To Have

Up and down and all the time:
This flux and fleeting world of woe,
So much farther - roads of hunger,
Blur colours faster - farther to go.

But, how great is it to have a hand,
To hold and touch and feel the hand,
Upon your back - bones of flesh and hearts of strength -
To allow for you to stand;

How good it is to have a fire,
A warm and zealous, raving fire,
Upon your core - the heart of strength and soul consumed -
To allow for words inspired;

How awesome is this Hand of strength,
Fire commanded, frown and fine
Calming seas and hearts and mine
Gentle now - and there and here and forever and then.

It's lame. Very lame.
Not.

As per usual, your use of words never stops flowing, they just keep coming and coming and coming along.

It makes sense this time, and it's a bit like mine, where it begins with a description or a glimpse of chaos, and then it slowly moves to the truth of grace and real redemption.

I get it, in other words.
