Too Long


Written as I lament how much I have written about fleeting beauties and charms of this world in this blog, while there are very few poems written about my husband, the God of God and the King of Kings. Delight in itself is not evil, but perhaps the poverty of my creative work concerning Him shows how little I know Him and love Him indeed.

===============================

Too Long

Too long
my mind has dwelt
in the halls
of
queries
trivial

Too long
my hands have laboured
for the profits
of
aliens

Too long
my feet have run
to gather fruits
for
itinerants

Too long
my eyes have gazed
on the fleeting beauties
of
strangers

When
my heart belongs
to my husband
the
King.
