A Month New ~ September 1, 2023

 

The Call of This Day

what moves us but sensibilities and passion aflame
creation, concepts, art and BEING with heartfelt claim
brilliant be the colors of the sun to rise the sun to set
to mark the vision, the glory, beyond all regret
anew each breath within blessings divine
to mark our BEING this gift of time
a task, a deed, a celebration sweet
where vigor and joy so lovingly meet
beyond perceptions there BE a knowing real
from where LOVE and PRAISE have no conceal
dwell we may in a beckoning restless heart
from which deep understanding bears its start
blessings of GOD be the call of this day
'tis the message, the message of soul to convey.
