New Wine . . .









      New Wine


We ran---we happy, freed captives---
Dancing with the Wind that carried us---
Running through the scalloped edges of the scarlet sea---
No lines to shore---
No sticky knowledge---
The old wine---gone---
Long gone---
And we, stripped and burned, new wineskins are---
Fashioned with the supple strength of eternal trust
Filled to overflowing with the wine of new life
