Day 5
Cookie Jar Sweet
Memories
Beth
“Roman-riding” on Lady and falling off, knocking the
Wind out of
herself & not telling anyone for years
For
a guy who is seldom surprised, now, that revelation caught me totally
off-guard!
Of course! I am not so naïve nor feeble-minded
as to think I know all the “secrets”,
but, Dad has to stay “on-top” of the goings-on in our little clan, even when
the participants are unaware.
Until today, I did not know about the Coliseum
“Roman”-riding episode. Wow! I am only disappointed that I missed out on the
fun. (Some people seem to never grow up).
Just
thankful and glad that no one got hurt---at least…very seriously! Ah! Angels!
Luckily
for me, and, my dad, I pulled myriad shenanigans he never uncovered; he
practiced a “different” kind of parenting than I admired. Hmm! My kids turned
out much better than I did!?
Oh!
Well! Let the :good times” roll! Just make sure to---invite…me!
Plus:
Snowflake-filigree
Desert-mountain
lore Love-Salvation star-cross tale “Snowflake-Filigree!”
Yon miracle
Star-of-Bethlehem appearance-beacon shepherd-boy to see
One single
solitary ice-design kiss-tender Innocent celestial-glow cheek
Babe fingertip water-holy
touch to angel-sign midnight sky heaven-speak
Winged-warrior
sacred errand into diamond-strewn black-velvet soar
To precisely prominent-place
pointed cross-star so all mankind adore
While from above
Father-authority approval smiled
Holy Spirit
stirring-danced sanctioned accolade-wild
First miracle
performed of Holy Trinity by Jesus-child
Holy allegory-parable
foretold the Jesus-man sacred mentor-exercise
Teach man The
Way! Truth! Light! Of Redemption to gain the Prize!
Symbolized there
in the Snowflake-Filigree in tangled
web-of-life
“Cross”-thatch

evil-strife
Slowly
intelligence melts surely “quandary-challenges” confound
Allows a secret-sacred
holy-knowledge inborn released unbound
“Saved” then
through Father-source ingrained within Creator’s-All
Spirit-holy
resides in believer pure heart-of-worship ne’er forestall
Christ walk-talk
within two hundred miles proclaim a reverent call
What then of
lowly, simple, humble “I” as stumble onward falter?
Lead me to
follow-true like yon steed tethered in a reassuring halter
Teach worship
not material but reverence at Thy sacred spiritual altar
That sinful-I
may be absorbed into favorite “Amazing
Grace”-song
Forgive my
weakness! Failure! Transgress! Thy Love! To
lead me on
Trinity
fingertips touch once-Snowflake-Filigree
in reverent sign-cross:
In the name of
the Father:
Faith!
Family! Freedom! Might
just be all there really---IS!
And, of the Son:
In one eternal
instant the only mercy-blessing will be…His!
And, of the Holy
Spirit!
Amen!
Merry Christmas!
