Mans Heart

“Mans Heart”
The tree of man continues to grow
His roots, shallow and deep
The sun above him
Shines warm and bright
The ground he walks on
Hardened and barren
The leaves of fall
That of race not color
Scurries with the winds of change
Blown across
The ground
His floor of opinion
Rests in the palm of his hands
Looking into gods majestic painted sky
Rain mixed with tears of sorrow
He reaches into his heart
Grasping hold of his soul
Shaking hands with his lord and savor
Asking for forgiveness
Tears mixed with rain
Nourishing barren ground
That which was cynical
Is renewed with Gods living seed
Walking the crossroads
God wants him to follow
Flowing with milk and honey
Seeing things differently
Preparing himself
for the gates of heaven
