thirst no more

water washing clean- a sign

overflowing cup is mine

miracle of his design

grafted fruit of father’s vine

spirit-pressed agape wine

    Excellent use of words. Tight, controlled with the images implying more than the words themselves and giving depth and texture to the illustration. This does what poems should do. Remove one word and the work would collapse!

    Yes, we need more ‘true’ love, no just the words that actions don’t match…

    agape – we need more of that.. only way to bridge the color borders.

    i tend to agree with claudia…i think more people love themselves these days…esp those that claim to know the Father then do not follow his commands or seem to care about or invest in others.

    I feel the deep spiritual undertones, the overflowing of cup from the father’s wine ~

    if there only way more of this agape love in the world…the overflowing plays well with cheryl’s waves on the paintings…
