Refining Words

HERO

Stories, legends, myths,

songs abound convey

heroes’ courage,

bravery-sacrifice.

All an image

symbol of one only.

Whose hands bestow

True words to fulfill

Soul fed lives

Own story for eternity

John 6

Refining Words

FOOD

At what point did awe

recede?

First a miracle performed,

hunger appeased

with gratitude received.

Then the potential drove crowds

to seek Him over distance,

dangerous waters.

Greed for perishable

food.

Forgot manna’s history

one day’s needs at a time.

Heart hunger ongoing.

Worship alone sustains

hope.

John 6
