Revelation

Imagine, for a moment,
 what John felt after receiving the Revelation from God.

Revelation is a gift. Will the gift become "something we can use?"

 Or something to be held "safe" for the future? 

A seed is not the food on the plate, but

We treasure our seeds,
knowing they hold the key to future survival. 

Mother's chest of drawers in her bedroom was her "safe."

 It is where she kept treasures for "a special day."

 The Special Day never came. 

She died before reaching the age of 50.

  She enjoyed her treasures nonetheless.

They were hope for another day.

To suggest that day never came,

 is to be ignorant

of the magic

of dreams.
