And He Sat Down by Raymond A. Foss
Claiming His name
God’s purpose for his life
reading the ancient prophets
the fulfillment of the Word

And he sat down
certain, in their presence
all eyes resting upon him
in wonder and disbelief

This is how he left home
going out into the world
nothing left there for him
needing to go on the road

Sealing one chapter
the majority of his life
leading on to his future
the destiny of his days
