What to Feed Your Mule by Shelly

 

You’ll laugh,

when

I

tell

you

this…

I walked into the house just now

greeting

the Old Recliner

with

“Hi God.”

It earned a smile

on a

distant star

in an

unnamed

universe

infinite

miles

from

a nearby Kiosk.

Gosh,

If I could explain more –

you’d know what to feed

your

mule.

A Prayer for Betty

Dear

Lord,

Wish

My

Heart

Be

Calm

and

My

Prayers

for

Betty

Fulfilled.

Ease

her

Heart

and

Mind

as

YOU

Comfort

HER.

And thank you Dear Lord for this…

 

least of all

screen-shot-2016-12-14-at-2-35-42-pmWe begin this season, most of all, trying to acquire most of all.  The least of us will celebrate this Christmas with the least of all.  Here is a poem, inspired by the style of Robert Lax.  May it fill your heart, empty your pockets to the poor.  May it enrich your spirit.  May it nourish your soul.  May it bring light to the least.  How Merry is your Christmas?

Least of All

by Shelly

Most

of

All

of

Most

of

Us

are

Least

of

All

giving

the

Least

of

Us.

While living in Patmos; I became acquainted with Robert Lax.  At the time, Robert was well into his purpose of serving Jesus with simple poems of recognition and praise.  Robert’s clear blue eyes, fixed on yours, could burn meaning into a simple word of response.  He was brief at every opportunity.  And every word given by his love for Jesus was elevated by its simplicity and worth.  This Christmas; I remember Robert’s love for savior Jesus.
