By the ONE so named...

 

Today the sky here in Tappan, New York is of clear blue... such a welcomed light after the spell of an overcast white sky for the last 5 days... .

By the ONE so named  

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

Sweet be the silence in this moment of BEING divine

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

This season in PRESENCE 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, AGAPE LOVE,  

by the ONE so named.

All In Grace ... ... and so Nature's mood captured in its changing light and beauty...

nature's mood the rain to come our way
clouds embrace the sun and darkened be the day
lambent be the blue that yet bears the light
and there soars the wings in skyward flight
shadowed upon the ground in silhouette splendor
to the rains to come all in grace surrender.
