There's not just a flicker
but the gapping
equinox spaces
between the stars that
breathes Your chaotic
smile
sandwiched into
my hopeful pockets,
I rub the dried rose
between thorn-cut
fingers
bite the sprig of mint as
a fresh alien of earth's
garden; tastes that last
more than my life
ever will.
Oh,heavenly glory!
Fruit of Shem,line of David,
seed us to those who look up
always known from
perfectly cupped hands
Yours only-
Light of the World.
Author notes
Things to Know:
*\_Shem_, the third of Noah's sons, was the greatest and most surrendered follower out of whose line would yield the prophesied Saviour, Jesus Christ!\*
In the 10th generation of Adam, while God still made public and personal appearances, Noah was sadly the \only\ servant who continued to listen, pray to, and knew God after the consequential fall in Eden. By appointed selection, it took Noah a struggling 120 years to build a floating ark that would endure the flood waters, purging all living inhabitants, while still saving the animals of (\each kind\) for a new beginning of earth.(Genesis 6). Purpose: to start anew and give man another opportunity to know His original purpose, plan, and communion with Him.*

Thank you, David.All comments/ critiques appreciated and considered.
This reference (alien) is prophetic to how one senses to be outside the establishment once a holy calling comes, just as Jesus was in his own country.
If I see this differently on another day, I'll gladly edit. Thank you so much. -
Love the poem - except for one word - 'alien' - it interrupts the flow and seems to be from a different dictionary - thank you for very kind comment on my poem btw - david

Oh dearest Dianne, carried on mint breath, divine words reaching into the core of star roses. How we are burdened and glorified by the fruit of His Divine garden -- being gardener and flower all at once: holding the shimmer of the golden Rose.
