Memory of ...


Jeremiah 31:3 

In a far-off land the Lord will manifest Himself to them.
He will say to them, ‘I have loved you with an everlasting love.
That is why I have continued to be faithful to you.

 

Memory of ...

 

Smiling at me from the past to be with me today

A picture on my desk in place to revive old memories

How long will it last and where will it stay?

As the day will surely haste to remove all fantasy

 

Tears are soothing the eyes as all turns now complete

You and me together interwoven in a speck of time

Never to say goodbye again removing all deceit

Little now matters anyhow, as all now appears fine

 

Who understands in full the dimensions that are within us?

Whoever accepts the gifts that are shown us in the heart?

Who is really a tool to be used by the Master as such?

Who brings Glory to His Name and in Life never to depart?
