Paths (GENESIS)

THE STARS

UPON A PATH

MADE BY GOD'S

GREAT "BEGIN"

MOVED TO FORM A WONDER

THAT WISE MEN FOUND ATTRACTIVE

THEY SOUGHT TO SEEK ITS MEANING

IT DROVE THEM FROM COMFORTABLE BEDS

UPON A JOURNEY

TO DISCOVER

A NEW

BEGINNING

IN THEIR WORLD

AND IN THEMSELVES

THEY WERE USED TO DEALING WITH KINGS

THEY DEALT WITH HEROD HANDILY

BUT THE CHILD KING

LEFT THEM WONDERING

AS THEY HELD THE CENTER ON THE UNIVERSE

AND HOPED HE WOULD NOT CRY

THOUGH SOMEHOW THEY KNEW

THAT HIS VOICE

WOULD NOT BE

A VOICE SHOUTING IN THE DESERT

BUT RATHER LIKE A RUSTLE OF LEAVES

OR SAND SIFTING DOWN A DUNE

CALLING MEN BACK TO THE BEGINNING

ALONG PATHS OF RETURN

LAID DOWN LONG AGO

WHEN GOD SAID

"BEGIN"
