The Return

by Jane E Pearce

Father, I must return,

to the place of my birth,

where sands make waves

in the wind, reshaping

the earth- please once more

- they weep for us now,

in travails of unknown tomorrows

that furrow the brow.

.

They are sinking in the quicksand

of evil affairs- can't You hear it

in all of their prayers?

Let Me descend again-

the people need You and Me,

to put the Temple right,

along the Gallilee- oh Father,

give me leave, to again enter

Your world's air, and make

the people realize

that We still care.

You earnest plea is one of great desire and much needed the world around. Shout it from the rooftops, Jane, I'm right beside you.
