A Gush of Words – v2

Metaphors, images,
concepts,
word pictures
thoughts welled up
spilled over
washed over me
from her words
His words
From the pulpit,
His table
In prayer
and in blessing

A cascade of ideas,
ideas to communicate the feelings
the sense of urgency
the covenant, the unity
the communion of creation
our place in the web
fealty to our cousins,
the earth, our brothers
the birds, our extended family
coral reefs, jellyfish
the rocks, A single being
Creation, of God.

A Gush of Words
The consequence of the sermon today
by the Reverend Lorene E. Eldredge,
Wesley United Methodist Church,
Concord, NH –
“The Bread of Life”
I was inspired to write down 11 poem titles, in addition to this one
which came to me as I was driving home from church.
