In the Valley

Dedicated to the amazing Christian work of the Holy Land Institute for the Deaf; Salt, the Jofeh & Kreimeh Rehabilitation Community Centers; Jordan  Valley as they work with deaf, disabled and disadvantaged people.

In the valley of burning heat,
his life limps along
in the dust.
Out of sight,
out of mind,
a shame,
a burden.
Unheard of and not hearing,
the crack of rock,
song of bird,
howl of dog.

She even less.
Wheelchair bound,
Unaccounted
in the family,
a burden,
a shame.
No ramps up,
or down,
Just stuck in the back,
trapped.

How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation…..

They who have ears to hear, let them hear…..
