this green book
i don’t read it to learn what i believe
it’s not a rote memorization program
rather, vibrant, rhythmical, serene
written, it has what was already in my heart and head
my sense comes in images and incomplete thoughts, not grasped
the hands of others able to capture my knowing
placed into words, clear and complete
the hands of this book wrote that essence
describing my heart to me
it confirms what i already believe and see
my book of green

About lamehousewife
poetry, articles, thoughts, and quotes... on a quest to be authentic in my motherhood, sisterhood, and daughterhood, but i can tend to become Juvenalian sometimes, maybe in writing but also in life, reading Swift's "A Modest Proposal" as if i were hearing a friend speak to me about the how ridiculous some ideas can become, especially when they begin to drift into reality, mocking all of us really... i identify with Mary Magdalene, James, and Peter and am extremely grateful for that woman who said, "Yes!"...oh and i can be pretty lame...blessings to you, dear reader...pray for a single mother, her children, and the father of her children today!
