The Husbandman

The Husbandman

A Poem by PoetryofProvidence

I desire you my Love
like the soil craves the rain
without your Light
my garden will not bring forth life
my flowers will wilt in pain
Release the showers of Heaven
that we may bloom for you
As Jah sends his Life from above
the seeds have been planted
but needs the tender care 
of the husbandman
to weed and prune and make fertile
so that it's fruit may become wine
and that all mankind may drink of it
to incite his desire for Love
that the earth may be filled with it
that joy may become abundant
and cover the very surface of the earth
How long have the seeds waited
that they may crack open in birth
watered with the love of God
and the reign of the Truth
That the scales may fall from our eyes
and that hearts become tender and soft
that we understand what has been given to us
the wine of sorrow and the bread of affliction
you have set before us life and death
good and evil , therefore choose life

John chapters 15-17 Deut.30:11-20
