From D A R K N E S S ...

The Night calls to the Darkness and the Darkness calls to the Dawning Anew... and this the journey to...

Divinity
Ascension
Revelation
Kindness
Nurturance
Eternity
Spirit
Salvation... the ever present Light and Breath of BEING.

In PRAISE

the silence this night
begets the melodies of the wind
the darkness
begets the brilliance of the moon
the reach of bough and branch
begets the light of stars
the breath
begets this moment in PRAISE.

an arising light
the darkness is awakened
moment of glory.

Cosmic Joy

it is cosmic joy
lambent light of moon and sun
twinkle light of star.

through all darkness be
wax and wane of silver glow
golden rays afar.

Depths of Darkness

Pulsing waves, tremulous flow
The shimmering dance of moon glow
Ocean waters holding to this night
Depths of darkness illumed by light.

Rose Marie Raccioppi

Memories, be they of glory or pain, are our depths of knowing,
ever to be seen in the light of understanding.

Luminous Majesty

A path upon these darkened waters
The luminous majesty reigns supreme
Radiant, ablaze with rapturous light
Enchanted are these depths of darkness
Revel I in the resplendent rising sun
Embraced within the wondrous firmament
And known be Glory known be Praise.

Light Behind The Storm

Light behind the storm
And hushed is heaven's outcry
To the wind and wave.

Clouds, thunderous within a celestial sea
Imbued I am with the beauty they gift to me
Summer winds and cresting waves of white
Darkness dispelled and known be the light.

From Depths of Darkness

From depths of darkness vast
A vortex of light be cast
In heavens and galaxies there to find
The knowing of the Great Mind
In silence, in chaos, the quest is heard
Dispel the darkness and light be The Word.

The Night

The darkness will not be silenced
It calls out
And the light hears its cry.
