Today’s task was a description of a Biblical Character
Some might describe him
As of a ruddy complexion
Clearly not yet a man, but no longer a boy
His mid teens rendering his limb proportions
A confused gangly mess
But there is strength in his arms
One who knows the benefit of an honest day’s work
Of life in the fields
A few choice scars
War wounds the evidence proudly displayed
to illustrate his tales of defence and victory
Of lions and bears
Calluses on the tips of his fingers
His eyes shine brightly
with joy
and anguish
and poetry
and innocent determination
An earnest lad
He runs when he moves from place to place
