S I L E N C E ... its calling known...

demanding be the many tasks at hand
a perception, a plan, action in command
intention and focus be the alert of the day
the gift of time and a knowing provide the way
how sweet when vision is newly held clear
when the din of despair is silenced and gone the fear
how comforting is this moment's embrace
when within heart, love the soul does place
how knowing is this Spirit's call
when resounding with the grace of ALL
the clamor and chaos hushed they be
felt is the gentle peace deep within me
the day by Creation's plan in blessings unfold

led I BE by the Divine WORD ever told

S I L E N C E revealed its calling sweet

Within its embrace the SELF and Heart's music meet

'Tis this resounding JOY in S I L E N C E heard

The SELF be  known in sacred WORD.

Ascension

demanding be the many tasks at hand
a perception, a plan, action in command

intention and focus be the call of the day
the gift of time and a knowing provide the way
how sweet when vision is newly held clear
when the din of despair is silenced and gone the fear
how comforting is this moment's embrace
when within heart, love the soul does place
how knowing is an ascension's call
when resounding with the grace of ALL
and as I cast my sight to the lambent sky
feel I the beauty of the moving firmament on high
the lithe bamboo touched by the gentle winds that blow
breath, faith, 'tis all that I need now know
the day by Nature's plan does unfold
and I to be led by THE WORD ever told.
