Riddle#27 Holy Mountain

stump with shoot
Attention!
From the stump will grow a shoot!
Isaiah 11:1
The Spirit will rest upon Him:
wisdom
understanding
counsel
might
knowledge
obedience
insight
truth
fairness
wolf and lamb
leopard and goats
lions and cows
babies and snakes
Nothing will hurt or destroy in all God’s holy mountain.
A glorious place!

Holy Mountain
A shoot
from the stump
grows
wisdom
might
fairness:
leopards and goats share
babies and snakes share
Nothing hurts or destroys on God’s Holy Mountain!

    I love your groupings, leopard and goats, lions and cows, babies and snakes. It’s both a great serious poem and a fun one.
