"The Finer Things of Life," ... gifted onto me ...

 



A gift, timeless in its commune... WORDS that echo the soul, pulse the heart, WORDS that call to the Wondrous, the Omnipresence, the Revelations, the Divinity, the Spirited. And so this day a gratitude expressed anew for, "The Finer Things of Life," gifted onto me by my son, Christopher Angelo. Pages that unfold, that beckon the SELF to be known.

A gift of a son...
Echoes of Many Voices
Within this very moment
And seven scores past
Echoes of many voices
Upon pages in words cast
Hearts aquiver, souls in quest
Thoughts, perceptions, truth
Love, purpose, to hail our behest.
Longings, reflections, grace and gratitude
Within wisdom's heart be they ever mine
Words of thinkers, lovers, the moods of a day
And the touch of the known Divine.
Rose Marie Raccioppi
APOGEE Poet
"Words are things, and a small drop of ink
falling like dew upon a thought
produces that which makes
thousands, perhaps millions, think."
Lord Byron, 1788-1824
