Once an alien maid left all she had for love‘s Naomi’s clan.
Destiny would play God’s ace with her chosen mate at hand.
She lost her husband but would not leave her mother-in-law.
Forsaking her kin and culture for love, was not a mardi-gras.
Ruth worked the fields for leftover grain, working faith vivid.
Bethlehemite community was later to become Town of David.
The book of Ruth, with Boaz, is of my ancestors and lineage.
This line of Christ is an accurate documentation of vintage.
Though Ruth was many years younger to Boaz her kinsman.
Even their cultural differences were liked, a social accepting.
Leaving the matter at Boaz’s feet; destiny still lay with another.
Who wouldn’t taken her as wife to raise up seed to the brother.

oh reminds me of my mother telling me, go where my husband seeks work... you know, we are all biblical people following such paths... women and men .... lining up in order.... some of them .. us fall... get ahead... fall.... the more I read, the more I come to gather more of what I am correct about... less fighting, more love... keeping cool in nature... waiting for the true love to come along which is .... my maker.. battles go on.... I pray .... I know what you write is long ago.. it still brings up the present... and the eternal future is here.. only our time must tick along slowly... to reach what is already available..
