God To Man

I am the deepening of the blue

                    

  Picture son Tater-tot

I'm the deepening of the blue

upon the sky of man

I am the stories all told

like the billowing blowing sand

 

I am he who gave you life

beneath my sky gone gold

As sunset burns and dies

I give you my stars to hold

 

You have but one fleeting chance

plant the seeds of love to grow

Create a life long everlasting

such as none could ever know

 

Then you will be the gentle soul

upon whom all life does seek

You will inherit this little world

you the loving and the meek

Author's Note

I wish for all of us that this be true.

My salute to thee, O! the Happy and all Loving Soul - Tate!

I loved so much these lines...

"Plant the seeds of love to grow.
Create a life long everlasting.
Such as none could ever know.

Then you will be the happy soul."

Thanks for such great inspiration! I would also try to write by listening to my heart and soul :)

I enjoyed this Tate. Beautiful picture! "except you become as little children"... Matthew 18:3 We must accept grace in faith and trust as if we were innocent and not cynical and scarred patrons of the world. It's not easy to trust once you've been betrayed. It's not easy to give your heart once it's been broken. It's not easy to love without boundaries or expectations or conditions. But God wants those who have known betrayal. Christ knew Judas. God desires the broken hearted. "The Lord is near to them that are of a broken heart." Psalm 34:18 And what does God say to those He asks if they love Him? "Feed my lambs." John 21:15

Fabian Nice to hear from you . I just to want to grow old watching my son grow up

[TL Boehm]

Well the picture did it for me. I have two spawn of my own you know - and there's something about babies....makes us idiots. They do and I'm not ashamed to admit it. But the poem too. It is a heartfelt wish - the first verse spoke the loudest to me but the whole poem was a heart tug.

Famous words Tate. I can't help but feel that something such as this was delivered to the Christ himself. Nicely done.

[Tate Morgan]

Well I suppose such a thing could have happened. I bet Joseph worry about girlfriends, insurance, education and dentists.

MAN to MAN... Tete a TATE
War, capitalism, communism, hate. anger. money, Christianity, Islam, boredom. pollution. retail therapy, medication, taxes and taxis, fast cars and petrol, the media, diets and obesity, greed and the concept of perpetual growth are all myths. There are only a very few universal truths.... or are there any at all?
Embrace chaos.... it's the only thing that's perfectly ordered.
What goes around comes around. Everything on this speherical planet is cyclical.... the days, the seasons, the tides, fertility, life, growth, death and decay, the water cycle, the rock cycle, the carbon cycle .... Ebb and flow, give and take, tick-tock, lub-dup.... Love and be loved.

[Tate Morgan]

Love and be loved

Such a well penned piece...not a word out of place. You've driven deep the spike of honesty and emotion with this one. I felt to my core the deep sense of desire to "be" the person that we are all intended to be. Inspirational...

[Tate Morgan]

you are always too kind
