face

the heavens caress
the rivers,seas,forests,hills
the face of the earth!
.............................
a hundred and eight
winters,summers,autumns faced
the oldest blogger!

................................
human history
does it truly justify
the image of God!
..........................
innocent children
their faces are the scriptures
that are full of Him!
..........................
defacing the earth
to make a home beautiful
what a paradox![jul28]

  1. A message expressed quite succinctly, I think. The history of our behaviour, and the innocence at birth have very separate causes.

  2. To watch the faces of the very young is to watch in awe of the AWE that is revealed within their innocence.
