Christ Consciousness--By Yancy Dalton--United States

Christ Consciousness (a sonnet)
  
Jesus taught by both example & words
Love one another even thrilled love birds
Love as ye live, do not quarrel or fight
Give up thy pride, follow my divine light

Repent & be baptized my humble ways
Holy Ghost is given, hearts guiding rays
Follow my ordained servants at all times
The chosen vessels of my priesthood lines

Find your way in my living head apostle
Who's with authority, my chosen vessel
Savior of mankind, all ages & kinds
Your shepherd brother from our father binds

In me, find eternal life, don't just glance
You're not on earth by accident or chance

Yancy Dalton grew up on a cattle ranch riding, roping and branding calves. He started writing poetry after college, church mission and marriage.  When he first started writing online, the name "Yancy" was often taken for a girl's name. So, he made up a pen name to progress as a poet called "Knight Writer."

      Thanks Susan,
      To many live life on the law of chance. Jesus wants it to be for us a sure thing.
