Bring Your Slingshot to the Swordfight

Haiku string

By Colleen WaltersPublished 2 years ago • Updated 2 years ago • 1 min read

I don’t belong here

I think sometimes, another

dimension is home.

—-

Where the angels sing,

and stars exalt their Maker.

There’s my frequency.

—-

Distant galaxies,

roaring so loud, so silent-

that only hearts hear.

—-

Swirling time and space,

Kaleidoscope’s emotion

erupting trumpet’s call.

—-

Unfettered mind flies,

overtaking the will now,

emotions soaring.

—-

Mighty hand of God

knits the three together with

Love, to form the soul.

—-

The spiritual realm

is calling, battle is here-

unknown to many.

—-

Listen for the call,

don the Full Armor of God,

go into battle.

—-

Salvation helmet

Righteous breastplate, Peace sandals,

Faith shield, Spirit sword.

—-

Truth around the waist.

Fight of Good versus Evil.

This story of ours.

—

Fear, Doubt have no power,

but they keep it a secret

to snare the hapless.

—-

Declare your victory

Your Light can make them vanish

and never return.

—-

So now bring your sling ,

to the sword fight, and then watch

the stone hit its mark.

—-

There is no giant

that can overpower you

when Spirit indwells.

—-

In a world where you

can be anything you want,

just be a David.
