Scribblings

Found pockets of time in between appointments to pen some lines to keep my brain juice churning...:

You came to perfect
my picture of love
You came to ease
my pain and hurt
You came to show me
what it means to love

You came amidst the chaos
in a world gone wrong
You came, descended 
in a world of woe
You came, and you showed me
what it means to love

You came, not too early
and never once too late
You came, to realise
the beauty and power in me
You came, to wipe 
each tear and my every fear

So come, let this heart
be Your home
Come, cleanse this heart
let it be only Yours


***

A silent night
punctured by
the cris
of an infant
so divine

The world hardly knew
who had arrived
The world hardly knew
He could bring
a life so new

A tear-stained noon
punctured body
by the blood
He knew

The world hardly knew
His blood shed
had paid our price

***
