Gives me pause___.

Just who is King

Of the Universe

And who lives mostly

In desert climes,

Wars constantly,

Has little economy

Save G-d’s oil

That others produce

And transport___.

Who bade the Son 

‘Rise’

on the third day

and every day since?

Just roll over

With no army,

Who created Heaven and Earth! 

You might want to ask

About the sixth trumpet war.

And blue___

To endless skies

Where freedom

Rings our Liberty bell.

As Seeds to the Wind

Scattered,

Sown to the soils

Of preservation,

Falling on stony

And sparse ground,

Roots growing deep

Into dirt of persecution.

Dispersed among nations

For winnowing

At the threshing floor

Of G-d’s kindness.

A diaspora as none other,

Two thousand years

And countless generations 

Living, dying and buried

In strange dry valleys

Where hope lies parched

And bare.

Waiting.

The Burden of Freewill

For Palestinian people

Mired in hatred

Of G-d’s chosen,

Renewing itself

Each generation

Fueled by Islam,

Finds life

In the corporate will

Of Arab logic.

Individual moderation

Is a death mask

Fashioned from extremes

And worn by deceased

For recognition

In the Arab jungle

Where escape

Is simple

As G-d’s will

For your life.

Note:

Somewhere

Between sleep and the dawn

In the cold of Alaska’s harshness

G-d bade me rise

And put pen to paper.

How could I refuse?

WILDFLOWER

Out of the ground on their own

To be found where nature’s sewn

Not for long do they splash

This green earth with a sash

Till summer’s sun they do present

Next year’s seed as they’re sent. . . .

To the ground to be found.
