Faith

by kiwisteveh



I am the house with the sturdy roof;

I am the question and the proof.

I am the hand upon the plow;

I am the Once, the Then, the Now.


I am the Goodwife at the door,

who toils daylong then long hours more.

I am the  Husband in the field,

whose sweat enriches the harvest yield.


I am the sun, I am the rain,

I am the breeze in the ripening grain.

I am the stern, I am the mild;

I am the Father and the Child.


I am the rock, I am the tree;

the sacrifice and the mystery.

I am the question and the proof.

Come share my house with its sturdy roof.
