Five Golden Rings



On the 5th Day of Christmas my true love sent to me

Five golden rings
Five blessings do they bring
Each finger circled in gold ever bright
Holding splendor and wondrous light
THE WAY the first finger does call
The second seeks TRUTH for all
The third is POWER to do and be
The fourth LOVE shared with a you, a me
The fifth is GRACE divine
All in harmonious devotion mine
A hand with five golden rings
Five blessings do they bring.


Rose Marie Raccioppi


Each finger to affirm

five meditations in our grasp
THE WAY, TRUTH, POWER, LOVE, GRACE
held in Oneness
shared in Glory.

A Gift
for anyone who enjoys the play of words

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

Thanks Brian. When my sons surprised me with the recording equipment I felt so blessed. Their encouragement is ever a gift. Yes, a circle - a ring - the eternal within each of us.
