when God made ink
In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God
and the Word was God. John 1:1 KJV
in eden one morning,
when adam was even,
the first ink was spilled in the vast universe.
it came without warning
(no signal was given),
for God needed not Divine Ink to rehearse.
He spilled on the parchment
of heaven the habits
that men should to Him and to others revere.
it was an encroachment
to stray from these limits,
for inkblots would bring consequences severe.
the Ink of I Love You
defied all confinement
by galaxy, firmament, mountain, or sea.
its virtues continue
with zero abatement,
although foolish choices still cripple the free.
Ink in the beginning
was One with the Father
and Ink the Omega is One with Him still.
Ink angels are spreading
the Spills of a Saviour
Whose Blood is the Ink for lost sinners death-spilled.

absolutely LOVE the metaphors, here!
& the verse is one i didn't have to look up in depth as more than one time i was asked to lead a study
(Career, Men's & Wed nite Groups)
I think maybe being with Your sweetie and closer to nature caused Your flame to burn
Hotter, Brighter, Higher
Very nice spill, Brother

Thank you, my Brother Tallen!
I am happy to stir memories of times you connected with the Word in a similar way to the reference in this spillage. The good we do -- then, as well as now -- does live with and after us.
I think your generous array of experience wonderfully constrains you to understand and EMPATHize with the ills of the world and the plights of individuals.
Yeah, I've been on a roll, haven't I, since that sojourn away from home with a beautiful person in a beautiful place! I humbly acknowledge a deeper depth to my writing and inspiration -- hotter, brighter, higher to the glory of God.
Blessings, Tallen.
Yours sincerely

So metaphorically rich, Cabcool!
the Ink of I Love You
defied all confinement
by galaxy, firmament, mountain, or sea.
its virtues continue
with zero abatement,
although foolish choices still cripple the free.
This is such a deep truth - we are our own worst enemies!
Well done.

Thanks, Ahavati!
Jesus' parables demonstrate the efficacy of metaphoric engagement. His practical demonstrations would sometimes fly over the heads of the arrogant, self-righteous religious leaders while connecting engagingly with the peasant communities of His day.
Object lessons do tell powerful tales; I have the example of the Saviour as my guide when He leads me to expressions beyond my own limitations.
I appreciate your having a perfect understanding of the entire situation, and I thank you for your encouragement.

well woven on the poets loom is the importance of the Lamb for sinner slain "Whose Blood is the Ink for lost sinners death-spilled."
Thank You for this.
Thank You for this.

This is such an insightful observation, Graceful: a perfect metaphor for the situation!
Thank you for your generous thought. If mine inspires you, then I know I'm on the right path and I look forward to your continued blossoming along your own unique path.

Leads one to think of the words of the New Testament as the blood of Jesus given for us.

Spoken as wisely as from Solomon the prophet, SS!
Obviously, you represent a stanza in his Song of Songs.
Yes, that was an awesome spill when Jesus' blood cascaded out of its inkwell to rewrite a perfect charter for fallen humanity.
Thanks for that great thought!
