Where men were meant to worship Him,
Where those from every tribe and race,
Could come and pray and seek His face,

In righteous anger Christ expelled
The traffickers who bought and sold;
His holy heart by zeal impelled,
Irreverential trade He quelled&#8211;

All parading &#8216;carbon trading&#8217;

But space to sit and reminisce,
Where distress fades to nothingness
In its secluded silent bliss.
My mind&#8217;s set free to roam awhile
To meditate on mysteries;
The world&#8217;s amusements don&#8217;t beguile
And pesky interruption flees.
Sequestered in this serene place,
Truth&#8217;s understanding is my goal,
Away from life&#8217;s unceasing race,
To be replenished, heart and soul.

The Word of God is a simple fool&#8211;
For all the things he claims he knows,

What right has he to then suppose

Charcoal trees&#8211;
Dark sentinels of gloom&#8211;
On ashen land,
Ghoulish stand&#8211;
Landscape of the moon!!
Burnt out cars,
Melted tar,
Grassland scorched and waste&#8211;
Farm stock dead,
Wildlife fled&#8211;
A stark forsaken place.
Oh the cost!!
Loved ones lost&#8211;
Grief so overpowering;
Words can&#8217;t say,
Thoughts convey
A loss so all-devouring.
Lord, I pray
This dread day
Turns hearts to seek Your face,
Men might find
Through sad times
Your precious saving grace.

Their soft tips gently stroking
The white clouds floating by;

Makes music for the wild birds,
A backing for their song.

Seen from the mountain peak,
Sublime in silent splendour,

		<description><![CDATA[The water of life
Is a cleansing flood,
A pure stream that flows
From the throne of God&#8212;
Reservoir of love
Through our Lord&#8217;s shed blood,
Fountain-head of hope
For a parching world.
The water of life
Quenches deepest thirst;
There, the seeking soul
Is forever blessed,
Never more to parch
In a land near cursed&#8212;
From a new wellspring
Life-filled waters burst.
