Pontificate.
A new word I//'//ve added to my vocabulary of late.
But I quite fancy the word "pontifical" as well.
I//'//m learning as you can tell!
Yes, I write with authority -
Passed down from above to me.
Not of mine own wisdom,
But from the Father of the Kingdom.
So if I seem vain,
I apologize for the pain.
However, to those who see the message,
I//'//m thankful for the blessing.
That the words fell on humble ears,
And filled their eyes with tears.
That I could be the instrument,
That brought God//'//s Word for good intent!

You honor me with your dedication. These sparse words express so much more than is visible on the first read. You write as you think - in many layers.

The sing-song rhyme carries a deeper message that speaks of your passion for life itself. You have a talent for steadying the tides of everyday from a calm and assured core belief. We would all benefit from embracing your gifts, and poetry is the music you have been given to touch many otherwise beyond reach. I wish you many ripples across many oceans, and one day the amazing experience of witnessing your profound influence on a far distant shore, that you should truly know your value.
