You have 0 items in your cart
God grew you from His spirit
radiant and pure
and made you bloom in my life
suddenly
like flowers in the desert
grow enormous overnight
unfolding lifetimes
in short spells of rain
set me ablaze in an instant
like an endless forest
of bone-dry trees
that had known only thirst
had forgotten rain
and how to grow green
now lit up
in towering flames
that turn and grow
the wheel on my heart,
a door
for you to push open
enter and expand
so that one day
i may hold Him
here
as well
