French Jeremiah Chintapasa Poems

I treaded down a path I never knew
Down familiar grounds where nothing was few but everything was new
Through thick forests where serpents and all the wild find rest
A naturalist haven, so peaceful to harbor nature's very best
...

Revive you faint hearts, revive
Revive for your redemption is here
Come drench your anemic vein
Come get a blood transfusion from the lamb that was slain
...

I build an altar of forgiveness,
A shrine of love to sacrifice our rotten differences
See our present is a shrouded presence of hate untapped
Our soul, a patched cistern of pent-up bitterness
...

Allow me to close the chapter before it ends.
It's been a long walk through streets of gold,
Through glittering highways so appealing to the eye.
I see this beauty beckon,
...
