Openings … Magnificentia

 

First taste of pure water trickles downward,

Each droplet a stream of delight and coolant,

for the creature in me.

Refreshing and renewing,

purifying a body,

and perhaps soul,

in thankfulness for today.

 

A mind set with only these thoughts,

pass through or become part of this water,

heading into a ready body

adding no weight,

merely meeting all needs.

No more or less.

 

It is the purity needed,

the cleansing power of spiritual want;

each bead cooling me down,

as it descends on a journey.

That is life desired,

the way I should be.

Openings … Knowledge and Wisdom

When I was young, I thought

Only owls and old teachers were wise,

and knowledge was contained in Encyclopedias,

JAMMED full of useless stuff to help me pass a history test.

Now I know the truth is what comes first.

Then knowledge and wisdom.

 

“Teach me wisdom and knowledge,”

Psalm 119

Holding On

 

Holding on when in turmoil seems to be impossible,

But in the darkness there is light,

There is safety,

And love.

Endure till it is revealed.


“For you darkness itself is not dark,
and night shines as the day.”

Psalm 139
