EACH HAND, EACH FINGER, OFFERS COMMUNE... 

BLESSINGS IN FULFILLMENT...

In time of call, in time of need

And to another I with heart to give

My WILL of life to love and live

'Tis only what I in heart command

Be known to another as a helping hand

Be they the WAY given to Truth, Power, Love, Grace

Within the chambers of heart to place

Each finger holding purpose and claim

Blessed they BE in our Lord's name.

In time of call, in time of need, 

in prayerful gestures of faith.

BE I of G R A C E...                                                                         

                                                GOD

                                                Revelation

                                                Ascension

                                                Creation

                                                Exchange

... gifted by endowments of my CREATOR... 

and so at 85 years of age I yet proclaim...

Thunderous Sounding

what be this awakening sweet

where grace and intention meet

what be this thunderous sounding in heart

where all that is has its knowing start

what be this soaring of spirit and soul

where vision is one with heart and goal

this be the Self, the TRUTH to embrace

where all that is blessed in knowing I place

where judgment, reprisal, illusion and demise

be cast aside by Spirit, an awareness wise

beyond the drama and lies yet heard

is the beloved glory of the divine WORD

joyful gratitude to fill my days

so be the embodiment of SELF, of GOD, in PRAISE.

GENESIS ~ .The moment, the breath, the GRACE of GOD in Deliverance.,,,

 

This posted earlier. Received a PM response and encouraged to post anew.. . so here as requested ... Yes, deeply heartfelt as perceived...

It be asked...

How does a poet, an artist, a visionary, a BEING, process the news that speaks to corruption, deception, maligning controls and abusive encounters? It hears the plea of TRUTH beyond the lies, it sees the HUMANITY beyond the exploitation, it lives the KNOWING, the FAITH, the VISION, beyond the oppression. It feels the darkness that ever calls to the LIGHT, it heeds the foretold, it lives THE WORD anew. In TRUST, in PUPOSE, it knows within SOUL, the love, the endowments of GOD's Genesis. It simply is the moment, the breath, the GRACE of GOD in Deliverance.

Rose Marie Raccioppi

Genesis ... deliverance onto thee...

Words of this day and an expressed pressing need

Thoughts within consciousness planted, as too, a seed

Is it dismay and expression of dread that I am to hear

Within I declare a knowing Faith, beyond the told and untold fear

Sense I do an awakening to Spirit be sought

And to this, a word of understanding to heart be brought

Listen I, and in a telling, a harvest from Creation's grace

Within each challenge be a lesson in life's book of time to place

And so the sense of pain, loss and fear of the calling moment now

Eased by the Spirit reaping the harvest of Faith's loving vow

Genesis, the rising light in blessings BE

Vistas of deliverance unto THEE.

…by the ONE so named

 

....by the ONE so named

A stillness, a calm, the air chilled and awakening it be

Trees, branches, and bough, gifts from the grace of thee

This celestial gift before me in benediction I to receive

The wondrous by the Creator in glory to conceive

A silence in this motionless moment of BEING divine

Such be the savor of the morning light, this the gift of time

This season of winter to embrace my blessed abode

Each day, each moment, there be a story to be told

Sweet be the song of wind upon the melodious chime

The gifts of barren trees, light, shadow and wintertime

The All becomes known in each breath proclaimed

The GLORY, the GRACE, the LIGHT, 

by the ONE so named.

LITURGY

Through the winter and into the Spring

Nature and time in its vow does bring

Leaves of green in a winsome array

Fullness in felicity for what shall come our way

The morning dew and rains in libation sweet

The glow and warmth of the rising sun to greet

Within the whispers of the wind secrets be told

The buds, the blooms, in adoration to unfold

A flower to be born, from green its color to reveal

A  destiny of supernal color and beauty beyond conceal

And so herald in the rites of Spring and time 

Blooms, the liturgy, in the name of the divine.

PROCLAIMED

 

With poet's pen this quest to write

Of the eternal now be shadow or light

The dark bears not demise

For the Sun in glory does rise

Within the depths of night, stars in brilliant array

In PRESENCE we greet the dawning of a new day 

Let us hold resolve in chambers of our heart 

From which love ever bears its supernal start

Let us see our differences with a vision newly clear

Hold to life's blessings of breath and BEING dear 

We the deciders, the change makers are to claim 

TRUTH, HARMONY, GRACE, PEACE in GOD's name.

Don I

don I the royal robes of resolve, shed I the cloak of despair
know I the grace, the blessings, the light of God's loving care
when oppression and fear beckon to this heart
from blessed grace, the knowing of love, ne’er I shall depart
upon my soul a golden shield of everlasting light and love
this with eyes to earth and eyes to the heavens above
be I of breath in the presence of the NOW
be I of spirit in an eternal vow 
to the divinity of love and grace, the soul in expressions shown
be this the bloom, the bounty, the breath, the beauty of BEING known.

When visualizing, "royal robes of resolve..." I envisioned a robe of violet velvet that caught the light, shoulder decoration and tassels of brilliant gold, symbolic of crown energies, and the graces of alchemy, regal, stately, and flowing. I was not aware that a flower existed that mirrored what was perceived, nor bore the name, "Royal Robe." 

⁠

The poem was fully penned when I set to search for a fitting image. When found within a flower, I felt deeply validated, blessed and grateful. Within the words of my poem its beauty was conceived.

Beauty beheld,

Harp Song of the Wind

hear I the wind embracing leaf, branch and bough

hear I a song of grace, a sacred vow

be this the harp song of the wind in a dream heard

be this the deliverance of GOD and WORD

an image emergent from a lucid dream divine

this be of grace and the spoils of time.

A Bloom There Be

 from branch and bough a bloom there be

beauty to behold from the grace of THEE

in this moment all becomes known

creation in beauty of bloom to our hearts shown.

A Question Answered ...

Asked: "What in nature do you identify with?"

I thought, the Sun, for its warmth and glow, 

the Stars for their sparkle and shine, 

the Moon with its dance of time and light.  

And then a smile, for visioned was a Flower 

that grew between the cracks 

yes, a Flower with its known destiny 

to BE the bloom of beauty, grace, and light, 

be it for just brief moments of the eternal.

The Alchemy of TRUTH

demanding are 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, the gentle peace within me

many a story yet to be told

the alchemy of truth to unfold.

The wondrous in expressive beauty...

The wondrous in expressive beauty...

Inspired by the gem tone colors of Autumn, by the flight of leaves, by the shimmer of light upon branch and bough, by the alchemic grace of the season, by the touch of the wondrous in expressive beauty... and so I take to palette and brush ...

.

And when do you know that the artist within you is calling…

when every color sings its splendor

when every line is a pathway

when every surface is an invitation

when every configuration becomes a work in progress

when holding a brush a kingdom is known

when holding a pen a poem speaks its words

when seeing the light truth within beckons

when what IS entreats Inspired Spirit

when ascension, revelation, truth, summon the soul

when the moment is the embrace of creation

when the vision bids mastery

the calling… the calling… the calling.

O N E...

 Awakened to the dawning new... to the resounding silence... to

ONE

It is the silence that is heard

The din holds blind the given WORD

It is the heart that seeks and finds

Beyond the trappings of the mind

It is the soul in its knowing care

That soars beyond the darkness of despair

Each season a crescendo of time

Constant be the call to the divine

It is love eternal in its gift of grace

That brings as ONE, all time, all place.

Blessed Alchemy

trees in revelation of secrets of time

joy in emergent colors devine

in my garden there now be

golden leaves of blessed alchemy

wondrous be these expressions of Fall

from trees mighty and proudly tall

behold I the splendor of a resounding grace

their secret of joy within soul I place.

A TASK

What moves me to put aside a task

A question onto SELF I ask

Why do I feel compelled to share

What in heart is love and care

Is it the calling echo of time

That beckons these expressions mine

What brings a poet to heed the WORD

If not the beauty of breath and being heard

Headlines, NEWS, bear they their claim

And I pray our salvation in God’s name 

Nature endures amidst destruction and dismay

And saved is the ultimate TRUTH of the WAY

A resolve pulses within heart

  And now the task, I to start

Be it to, "chop wood, carry water," task at hand

Known be the joy of grace in command.

HOLD SWEET...

HOLD SWEET

a seed planted

a garden watered

beauty and bounty there be

a kind word

a willing embrace

beauty and bounty there be

a day in honor, in celebration

a calling to heart

beauty and bounty there be

a poetic dialogue of faith and vision

a stroke of color upon a canvas

beauty and bounty there be

hold sweet the savor of wisdom

the gift of intent 

a vision of grace

the very breath of BEING

beauty and bounty there be.

...by the O N E

A stillness, a calm, the air chilled and awakening it be

Trees, branches, and bough, reaching to the light before me

Sky of lambent blue so brilliantly clear, supernal indeed

This celestial gift before me in benediction I to receive 

A silence in this motionless moment of BEING  divine

Such be the savor of the morning light, this the gift of time

This season of winter to embrace my blessed abode

Each day, each moment, there be a story to be told 

The All becomes known in each breath of SELF proclaimed

GLORY, GRACE, LIGHT, by the ONE so named.
