Day One

In eternity
I am

With self-reflected
Perfected love
I pulse
Overflow

From deep within
A word, echoing

Echoing now in angels
Dancing dancing

Echoing now in a bubble
A speech bubble
Growing before me
An anomaly in eternity

And within:
Light


The clock starts
White heat spreads
Cools
Fiery wheeling clusters
Flung throughout the bubble
Now calming forming
Firming

Coiled
In this first instant
Is fire, air, earth, water
Life
A woman
My throne

From without
And within
I gaze with
All-sustaining eye

And it is good.

The Father's Child

Curled up like a circle in my lap
My alabaster child
With peaceful gaze
Smooth cheek's curve
Warm brown locks
A love of this place
These arms that hold her
Eternal embrace
For a time I too am her father.

Seasons of the spirit

I'm walking with my God through the seasons of the spirit
I'm circling around with the passing of the sun
Day and night hold their sway as my heart swings that and this way
I'll pray the mysteries of life till I'm done

In the town up and down as the people chase their business
Fright flight fight they are hurting as their daily life they run
In this church on a rock I will hold their souls to me
I'll pray the joyful mysteries till I'm done.

In a garden in secret as I whisper out my life's blood
As I hang and I weep for the horrors that they've done
I now see a glimmer of a bright new hope that's dawning
I'll pray the glorious mysteries to the breaking of the sun.
