Blessed Are the Meek

Blessed Are the Meek

Blessed are the meek,
A disconnected lot,
No ownership they seek.

The strong prey on the weak,
But evil, weak have fought,
Blessed are the meek.

Abundant wealth they speak
Of things they haven't bought,
No ownership they seek.

They turn the other cheek
Without a plan or plot,
Blessed are the meek.

Their self knows not its pique,
His love's a gift begot,
No ownership they seek.

It is no odd mystique
To give when nothing's sought,
Blessed are the meek,
No ownership they seek.

About the Poet
Husband, father, grandfather, and each title is my joy. As a youth, poetry was a means to express the inexpressable. I was attracted to (and still am) the beauty and brevity of verse. All flows out from God, and like a proper prayer, can flow back.
