Herbs and Green Herbs – a kyrielle

Sickness and pain have gone away.
Now health and life are here to stay.
The Word reached my broken body.
Herbs and green herbs are healing me.

Gone are the asthma and migraines,
sinus infections, body pains.
No more will I trust my MD.
Herbs and green herbs are healing me.

Wondrous white willow removes pain.
Lovely lobelia, garlic gain
vitality and purity.
Herbs and green herbs are healing me.

Awesome arnica soothes my aches.
Asafoetida virus breaks.
Sonne sends regularity.
Herbs and green herbs are healing me.

TMJ no longer plagues night.
Valerian calms and sets right.
Silver biotics make germs flee.
Herbs and green herbs are healing me.

This sin-ridden poet gives praise
to her Savior all of her days
for giving me His remedy.
Herbs and green herbs are healing me.

And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat. And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so. And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. – Genesis 1:29-31
