Love Poem: The River Jordan

Written by: John Rhinem

The River Jordan

Standing at the waters dividing edge....

Watching the sparrows and dragonflies flying by

Spitting into its mirrored reflections amid these 

Shimmering thoughts of being as one; life ~

Walking down its banks and gazing into the sky

Searching....

Sacred verse; flowing currents and swaying flowers

Jewelweeds, colourful turtles and curious mallards

Butterflies dancing afore fascinations bloom; purity ~

A chorus line its blessed light and unknown night and I

My own hands; before the altar carved years ago....

The precious name of “Christ, The Messiah.” 

Turning toward the north to pass, this sweeping sun ~

Spirit in hand; spitting into the waters of mirrored

Moments as One, with my Soul....

Searching beyound the currents flowing inside these eyes

Nature, life, tides and tides; time, standing at divisions edge
