Forever Kept

.
Reclining at the last supper's table
  like the young thunder*, his ear upon
    the bosom of Jesus his Lord's chest,
Listening for the love in His heart's
  every beat, and resting in His arm's
    familiar embrace; I long to be so rapt.
Surely Lord, You will be coming soon,
  with John still hangin' on, for we so wait
    to be held like that as well, forever kept.
 

John 13:23-25
Revelation 1:7

*'young thunder'; Apostle John, brother of
James, son of Zebedee, Sons of Thunder
