“Alphabet Soup”
A bowl with alphabet noodles,
Alphabet letters float to make Titles,
PHD clumped pass a distorted REV,
RN in bowl corner opposite INTERN,
Titles of labeled meanings,
Titles come with professions,
Titles come with honors,
A slurp from soup spoon,
Digests floating alphabet noodles,
Titles dissolve in soup juice,
Titles come and titles go,
Alphabet noodles now form a Name not a Title,
At the bottom of the bowl a Name surfaces,
The Name is cryptic,
Hue-man is the name floating in the noodles,
That is You,
That is Me,
God only calls Hue-mans by Name not Title.
[Reflection based upon personal selfish insight of not seeing my name with title among other titled clergy. Yet during a meditation the phrase “God calls us by name” was my awaking.]
