“The Picture”

I saw today through picture of
Engagement scene – “Don’t send, because
Not everyone who says, ‘I’m friend’
Is friend in fact – so badly ends”.

A lot of learnings in one fact,
As boat swings ’round to other tack;
A letting go to take the new,
And shift in tasks we’d best not do.

The number’s just the same, it seems,
With space freed up, what it now means
Is new, can come with far less stress,
Than would be clutching older mess.

Christ said there’d be a pruning time,
Not done by us (though that is fine),
Done by the Father, He who made
The universe – in genome laid?

A bit – some parts are sloughed off there,
And here, as we mature, prepare
To moult some more ’till chrysalis
With butterflies transcend all this.

And that is what’s ahead – forthwith,
Atomic level parts persist
Into a world of splendid color,
Best suited for upcoming flower.

Thanks Holy Spirit for this.
