CHAPLAIN TO THE MENTALLY ILL.
My Dad, the Methodist preacher,
Was an intuitive teacher…
His flock was varied
And not all carried
The ability to get every feature.
–
He’d use a Bible verse twice,
And both messages would be nice…
‘Bout cedar waxwings
And common things,
Helping to break the ice.
–
The simplest subjects can reach,
When God’s love one will teach…
His loving way
Finds faith to stay,
Whomever may–for each!
–Jonathan Caswell
