Iesu
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

Iesu

Hawaiian for "Jesus"



Graces by cross
Southern night sky

Dances mute flowers
His fragrant breath

Blesses by rains
His fragile bloom

Walks by moon
my truculent sea

Stills my flame
that skyward steals

prays by dove's
soft muted cry

Gathers by churches
the Spirit's reply

Staggers to apex
history of man

Cannibals death
by endless beget

Surpasses by sunrise
final sunset



by C. Van Gorkom
