Fresh Water Words by Wil Triggs
On the Dreamliner headed to Singapore
Flying mostly over water, this plane a covered wagon
Across the great ocean plains, headed to the great west of the far east
Old friends to see, new ones to make, the chance to learn and hear
Bottles of water to hydrate, books, art, media to celebrate
Return your seats and trays, upright and locked
The blind to see, we begin our descent
Words gathered toward Word, the lame to walk
Drawing near the oasis of others and Other
The roof comes off, drink, see his handiwork of now
Seat belts click, tires thud, friends lower the paralyzed man down
We land at the feet of Christ to be healed.
