(upon remembering the writing life of senior poet, W.S. Merwin
RIP -
Peace, Yes
but no longer a need for rest
rest is for tired
with Heaven
no longer ever tired
thus never ever a want for or need of sleep
sleeping in Heavenly peace
the lull without a bye)
Lord make me
an instrument
of your Creativity
Inspired
never to expire
and not invented us
Spirit move us
to play our God-given part
with the God-created part
The Heart
like Our Father
like His children
kin in King
kin in kind
brother & sister we
all kinds to His kingdom come
if laugh-lines wrinkle with ennui
the strands are just evolving out of fashion
moving in mysterious ways but not a mystery
now evermore formidable for the compassion
Providence & patience
when passion is spent
then genius looking
& sounding like Jesus
will find Christ Life
never goes out of print
go ask Cathy & Heathcliff
Emily Bronte & all kindred spirits of our family
I believe we'll feel the free of the flesh
in the flash of the Miracle Lift
Psalmic lines: "I am with you always"

Re: Psalmic lines: "I am with you always"
These are the lines I like most, the last stanza my favorite.

I would look to cut...the laugh-lines stanza is the first stanza I would remove

I agree with everything Bob has suggested, Michael.
I love the last stanza too.
