Safe in His Arms

Date:

Stay away! Do not touch me,
I am holier than you;
God gave the insight to see,
Giving a heavenly view.

You have become like a smoke,
Like a smoldering fire;
Burning words each time you spoke,
Of your carnal desire.

As written in front of me,
I will not ever be still;
Quiet about what I see,
Holding back just makes me ill.

But I will repay you though,
I will repay you in full;
Payback all for what is due,
Because you are such a fool.

I will repay for your sin,
For the sin of your father;
You inherited within,
That causes you to falter.

They burnt incense on mountains.
Slandered your God on the hills;
With orgies in the fountains,
Hallucinate with their pills.

When you find juice for new wine,
Within a cluster of grapes;
Getting drunk while you dine,
Talking of coming from apes.

But you should never destroy,
Because there is a blessing;
The servants that you employ,
Will stop any transgressing.

My chosen ones inherit,
As the servants will live there;
While the Holy Spirit,
Will comfort them as they share.

Richard Sherrer is actually retired from the United States Air Force about 14 years ago. He had lived in Korea while in the Air Force in 1972 and 1973. You might be asking yourself what brought him back to Korea. I guess you could say that it was a lot of love here, for the country, the people and especially for a Christian woman that he met on the Internet. She convinced him to return to be with her. So he came originally to teach English in July of 2000. They were married July of 2001. Now turned poet which is subject that is near and dear to his heart. His love for Christ and God is an inspiration to all who read his poetry.
