"Morning Breaking"


“Morning Breaking”

cji
10/18/15

Awareness of the morning
maybe birds singing gaily
church bells in older cities
children arising to dress
prayers being said by many
while the world is asleep
pretending today is a day
not the Sabbath Day
just another day to play
sports, movies, golfing
ignoring the Father/Son
saddened my tears fall
unable to scratch awake
getting through to so few
The Sabbath Day to keep
one of the Commandments
(‘if you love me keep my…
Commandments – all of them’)
but for why to continue
as the warning to be heard
birds singing – a child prays
awareness on this morning!
