With the dawn of a new church year, we have launched a new feature on our website, a weekly post of poetry that resonates with the lectionary readings for that week (Revised Common Lectionary).
*** Revised Common Lectionary ***
Lectionary Reading:
1 Timothy 6:6-19
Release
Liberty Hyde Bailey
One day
I went
To the fields to rest.
The sun
Hung low
On the rim of the West.
A sparrow
Chirped
As it dropped to its nest.
And my soul
Had found
The boon of its quest.
*** This poem is in the public domain,
and may be read in a live-streamed worship service.
