by Jonna Padgett and David Young

Here is one of the poems included in the book.


LIGHTNING ON THE MOUNTAIN TOP


Standing on the thundering alp,

Drenched in heaven's driving tears

With bending knees and tingling scalp

My glasses whining in my ears;



He's drawn me to this holy place.

Shying from His glorious essence,

I'm wincing from His gleaming face,

Trembling in His holy presence.



Streamers reaching from my heart

Do not draw the heavens there.

Though I do my trembling part
