Heaven and Earth

 

Images, vistas of Heaven and Earth in majestic array

Lakes, streams. rivers, oceans, wondrous water way

Rising and setting sun, colors emerge and blanketed they be

In the coming of night, held by the open sea

Mountains, plains, valleys, such splendor to behold

Each with a story past, present and yet to be told

Earth in its grandeur gifts of grace and light

So blessed be this day, so blessed be this night.

A Flutter of Wings ... message received Dear Nicholas...

A flutter of wings at my window be heard
A Cardinal, bears she Spirit’s WORD
So telling be her beauty and grace
Holding to heart, to heart’s loving place
A spirited Soul, Heaven has received
PEACE, PEACE, in glory perceived
This very moment, her fluttering wings in sounding love
At my window, a message from the Heavens above
PEACE, now in Heaven’s embrace
PEACE, now within our hearts to place.

Alchemy of Autumn

amber waves of light
the alchemy of autumn
leaves in heaven's hues.

When The Sky Is Gray

When the sky is gray
heaven's calling song is sung
for the coming light.
