Within Us All... (+1)

Kurt Philip Behm

No people or culture

lack the knowledge of God,

no matter how tribal

or famed

 

A Buddhist, Swahili,

a Mayan or Jew,

His message embedded,

ingrained

 

Those willing to listen

and heed to His call,

a power within

drives them on

 

Until Armageddon

brings light to the dark,

our natures so given

—to Him will belong

 

(The First Book Of Prayers: January, 2022)

 

 

A Quiet American

 

Hear…

before speaking the words

unwritten

 

Speak…

after writing the words

unheard

 

(Hotel Majestic Saigon, Vietnam: January, 2014)
