Speak to us those words
that stilled the waters
and opened eyes,
Speak to us of the Days
to come when we shall stand
as others shall bright shining
as the sun for having listened
to those words spoken afar
off when days even then
were numbered;
Speak to us
when Days numbered shorten,
lest we fail to stand make
your words our limbs,
make your words ours
that we might speak of
seeing the blood that makes
You speak to us.
(This poem originally appeared in Issue #1 of “The Elephant”,Autumn 2010)

Absolutely top-notch!
You too “Speak to us those words/that stilled the waters/and opened eyes.”
You too “make your words our limbs”
Obviously the highest kudos available~~ should be more available for your poetry.
