Hallowed Sea


Hallowed sea of creation, blessings divine
The ebb and flow of waters and time
Sacred womb within water's enfold
Emergent be life, story be told.

Birth, Baptism and Love.......love this! I have always had a strong draw to water, the ocean really, perhaps this is a memory deep seeded within.......:-) Hugs

Rose Marie: You have offered us the perfect marriage of words and image. Both speak to something deep within.

Hi RoseMarie-

Beautiful blend of image and words - I saw my first born - felt the joy - the miracle. You are so talented in expression. I am humbled.

Love Gail
peace....

Seamless composure, seamless composition. Ineffable.

Rose Marie
At times I am at a loss for words at all the beauty you share here...this is one of those times.
So, all I can say is....Beautiful as it truly is!

Margie:)

Bernie, We are timeless and waters are beginnings. We are born from the sacred waters of creation.

Bonnie, birth is creation's miracle.

Gail, Each pearl reminds me of the life that is within.

Dave, Your words of praise are received with great joy.

Margie, I too, when at water's edge, looking to the ebb and flow, find words need not be said for the inner song of creation is being sung.

Choices, So pleased for the pleasing.

THANK YOU ALL!
