Come to This
by Alison McKenzieIts come to this -
Acceptance and grace,
Fists of anger abated,
Quiet remission of anxious tuber,
Seeds falling into fertile soil.
Its come to this -
Love and forgiveness,
Satin blankets of mercy
Shielding denigrated accusations,
Gusts of life rupturing ancient web of lies.
Its come to this -
Tender caress
Sweeping away the poison,
Healing embrace of prayers
Molding broken pieces.
Its come to this -
Wrought of redemptions covenant,
Crimson love spilt for
Gift of eternity,
Radiant burst of my heart!
Its come to this -
You and I;
Our chance to find our way again;
Path of brambles rescinded,
Pinpoint miracle of light exploding
In brilliant guidance.
Its come to this
My God.
My arms lifted to the heavens,
Tomb of defeated tears sealed in
Acclamation of praise and hail;
Glory of joys blossom
In an infinite season of salvation.
Thank God its come to this.
