And What Be This Poet's Plea

And what be this poet's plea
But to honor God's gifts
Be they of land, sky, ocean or sea
To know that All and One are given in grace
And in gratitude be our care, our loving embrace
Stars and galaxies, vistas of splendor and glory
Within the secrets, the miracles of Creation's story
Words to hold to the knowing of heart and soul
Reverent be our gratitude, our calling toll
And what be this poet's plea
But to honor God's gifts
Be they of land, sky, ocean or sea.

In response to
Larry Lawhorn
who wrote...

"...it is our longing to become the poet...
that is the poet calling to you...
you are the poet so many long to hear...
designed by nothing less than infinite wisdom's Natural design...
trillion year old stardust woven into Living colors...
you were designed to be as you are ♥ ...

"...we are trillion year old StarDust... animated into Life, by Love. "

and I in response...

StarDust in waves of time and space
From which our spirit we to trace
Light beholden within our heart
From where love has its primal start
Known be the fire of the Creator's flame
And we the Presence of All so named.

With love,
Rose Marie
