Dear Father,
the Daddy of this small (3yr old) child,
what way will move me more like my big bro.?
It's how to spring from, work with, love that's wild,
creative, & expansive, trusting, so,
I'm open as he was, to who would choose
to be that open of themselves, reward-
ing who is willing to be of those whose
small lives are put down on the line, accord-
ing to what they are "gunning for" in fact,
and loving not their lives, will go for broke.
I see he did it, in each word, each act
to his disciples. Each apostle/bloke
was given all their choices, much and more,
encouraged to use well investments made.
But then to move along the path before
them, chosen by responses in the shade,
out of the public's view (but not of God's)
where lives are lived and made up of each choice
along the way we take, which might seem odd
so much but is the case for girls & boys.
Yet to those there in charge, he's quite aloof,
to them he's saying "Woe to you! You'll be
thrown down to hell!..." or making quite a spoof
of them & generalizing much, so we
are left with the impression (that he gave)
that humans, the most dangerous of all,
may not be fully trusted to behave
as God's own children. For there was "a Fall"!
