I forgive you naughty child
for wanting to be my mother
and then leaving me for another.
I forgive you a thousand times.
I forgive you for hiding spiders, dust, and toys
for wanting me to call them boys
and have me close my eyes.
I forgive you for wanting to surprise
me with a nasty sting.
I forgive you a thousand times.
I must remember you are not tall
and small too, is the bite that stings my arm.
Yet poison be strong, I too, shall hold you in this power of
all remaining strength, for true love knows the immortal song
that brings forth life and never dies.
So shall my eyes not shut nor my ears be closed,
I shall love you waking, while you repose
-that you may grow and some day become--
and set your seal upon my arm
to love you, a thousand times.

About Me
"speak the Word, even if we cannot hear"
joseph
job 13
Will you speak falsely for God
and speak deceitfully for him?
Will you show partiality toward him?
Will you plead the case for God?
Will it be well with you when he searches you out?
Or can you deceive him, as one deceives a man?
He will surely rebuke you
if in secret you show partiality.
Will not his majesty terrify you,
and the dread of him fall upon you?
Your maxims are proverbs of ashes;
your defenses are defenses of clay.
and speak deceitfully for him?

As for prophecies,
they will pass away;
as for tongues,
they will cease;
as for knowledge,
it will pass away.
For we know in part
and we prophesy in part,
but when the perfect comes,
the partial will pass away.
When I was a child,
I spoke like a child,
I thought like a child,
I reasoned like a child.
When I became a man,
I gave up childish ways.
For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then we shall see face to face.
Now I know in part;
then I shall know fully,
even as I have been fully known.
they will pass away;
as for tongues,

it will pass away.

but when the perfect comes,

Lord's day
Then I turned to see the voice
that was speaking to me,
and on turning I saw
seven golden lampstands,
and in the midst of the lampstands
one like a son of man,
clothed with a long robe
and with a golden sash around his chest.
The hairs of his head were white,
like white wool, like snow.
His eyes were like a flame of fire,
his feet were like burnished bronze,
refined in a furnace,
and his voice was like the roar of many waters.
In his right hand he held seven stars,
from his mouth came a sharp two-edged sword,
and his face was like the sun shining in full strength.

Pater noster
qui est in cealis
Sanctificetur nomen tuum
Adveniat regnum tuum
Fiat voluntas tua sicut in caelo et in terra
Panem nostrum quotidianum
Da nobis hodie
Et dimitte nobis debita nostra
Sicut dimittimus debitoribus nostris
Et ne nos inducas in tentationem
Sed libera nos a malo.
Amen.

O Jerusalem, Jerusalem
How often would I have gathered your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you would not!
