Your words came
like rain
and the parched ground
they found
was my heart
Your words fell
like seeds
in the cracked soil
of me
and they sprouted
Your words grew
like saplings
unfurled
like flowers
and tasted like
heaven’s own
garden-fresh
produce
and nothing at all
is the same
since
Your words came
“You have the words of eternal life” – John 6:68
