Beckoning

 

standing at the

edge

his beloved

fallen

slipped away

from

grasping

arms

he looking down

sees vast space

now wondering 

which way to go?

what now to do?

alone

that which once

was Important

no longer

necessary

the essential 

faded 

a claxon 

alerts 

pierces his absorption 

shouts

danger danger 

he backs away 

still unmoored

one-half of a

grand and zany 

team called

them

now one

where shall he go?

one swept

away 

the other wondering

what will david be

without

magnificent sabine?

hey God 

do you remember

hearing that cry

so long ago?

(psalm 132!)

another david

prayed from his

grieving heart

“Lord, remember me

In all my troubles”

perhaps you might

help this david

too

haven’t you always

said you

would?

his beloved

fallen

slipped away

from

grasping
