Tim just posted this amazing video with a poem he wrote for me in honor of my homeschooling. Heres the poem that Tim wrote for me: Her love sings quiet No gilded songs where sabers cheer And shower gifts To flatter and adore No lofty titles Inviting raised eyebrows Of surprised respect With savoring smiles Secretly seething with subtle envy At introductions made for show No Her love sings quiet Simple soft yet strong Unseen and rarely heard By those enamored by the clamor Of social fame Her melody weaves instead in muted tones Unbending to the sneers of mocking idols Who scoff at unborn promise Offering worldly prize Hers is a hushed refrain Veiled in a litany of diapers, laundry and daily meals Tucked between lessons of math and history Sitting at a kitchen table Offerings of whispered prayers Band-Aids And gentle strokes To foreheads kissed a thousand times Rest among the syncopated notes Of her unheralded composition All too often unaware Of the miracle taking place For while moth and rust and time Each take back their temporary treasures Her quiet song will sing for a thousand generations And fill the ears of kings and queens And sojourners treading tenuously toward The only true path that leads to home And on that day of days When all songs will be sung Before the One who is Hers will be the sweetest Because it is His song The song she learned from Him Then all will hear And all will cheer But for now Her love sings quiet - by Tim Wright, Ph.D. -- Feel free to share this.
