Give thanks to the Lord of lords,
for his love is for ever.
Psalm:135
Water droplets from eaves
Ease into pendants of ice
Glinting sparks of fire
In the dawn
Like the light-flecks
Of your eyes
Ephemeral as our being
Against universes
And sheets of blue-shook sky
Unwinding quarks and galaxies
Through the empty abstractions
In numbers beyond our reason
And years unfathomable
Before our becoming
Each to each
This one departing
Breath of His
Eternal song
Again I read this with a deep sigh. I love every word. Every single word.
ReplyDeleteThank you Nancy....you are so kind! God Bless...
DeleteCynthia, I love all of this. There's so much: the eaves and eases and each and empty and eternal and ephemeral. I love its bigness and vastness and its simultaneous focus on one departy breath. beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYes, I am glad you felt the contrast and the e sounds! It was a bit of a struggle, to say the least, writing this one. Appreciate your astute reading as always....Enjoy friend!!!
