Are You Like God, Breathing Life With Your Words? Poem by RIC BASTASA

welcome ladies and gentlemen
with poems written
in your palms
in our own humble beginnings
we take the mission
of creating and building words
putting up images
of full moons & stars
on dark nights like these,
the images move
like a circle in our lives
glistening
without ends
the words too become
alive
as we breathe them to ordinary
things
insignificantly tasteles
to the tongues of people
with mouths ungaping
that we resuscitate
so they may too live,

there is life in what we breathe
we touch and
motions begin
in a sense,
may God forgive
us
as we imitate Him,
and i know,
God loves poets like us,

we are not just few
we are many
we are holy
and we shall flock like angels
singing by His side

these poems, these songs
of love, of beauty,
of truth in the quest
of holiness.
