Limitless [a pantoum] - POEM of the MONTH!



Limitless (a pantoum)

As another chip melts off my shoulder
I see there are no limit signs in Heaven –
I wonder, when I see the petals of a flower
In places which are desolate and graven

I see there are no limit signs in Heaven,
The creative stroke of word and deed
In places which are desolate and graven
Find themselves spreading to each need

The creative stroke of word and deed
Rooted by planting from our knees
Find themselves spreading to each need
And tower beyond the greatest of trees

Rooted by planting from our knees,
Branching from the vine of our salvation
And tower beyond the greatest of trees
By living water, sustaining our perfection

Branching from the vine of our salvation
I wonder when I see the petals of a flower –
By living water sustaining our perfection
As another chip melts off my shoulder
