A Piece of Eternity

A piece of the creator
of eternity
planted in each of us
as he has planned it

The words of Christ
describing the judgment
the test of the law
how we treated each other

But not in the abstract
connected to nothing
the way we treat one another
as if unto God

Maybe more to this
if we look ever deeper
the words of Christ
describing eternity

As we treat our neighbor
so we treat our savior
because of piece of him
is alive in each one

The dust, the breath
the light of the savior
all in that kernel
planted in each human heart
