THE BRIDEGROOM
On waking this morning I heard several historians being interviewed on the history and sociology of the twentieth century. This poem resulted from listening to their ideas. -Ron Price, Pioneering Over Three Epochs,7 February 1999. :cool:
He knew there would be
a hankering after something new
when civilization died
in the trenches of that War
and we’ve been putting It together
around His gemstones
of imperishable, immeasureable lustre,
a new Word for this new Age.
And we’ve been spreading out
as far as one can spread on this planet
taking the gemstones
to the furthest reaches of the world
so that they can shine like the bride’s ring
with all the joy,expectation and hope
for a new day.
The Bridegroom has come
bedecked with invisible bestowals
planting many a tree of love and friendship
in the holy gardens of paradise.
But the steed of this valley is pain.
