Poem
The whole world is a series of miracles, but we're so used to them we call them ordinary things. ~ Hans Christian Anderson In the aching of a silent tear, Soaking through laughter’s voice, Gentling the darkness, the fear, With music who sings of our choice. Rustling in the light, softly glowing, Wonder beyond our imaginations, With Him, there is a still knowing, Breathing joy, the heart’s sensations. In the hunger of a fervent yearning, Risking, chancing, expressing… Spirit’s prayer, the soul’s discerning, Remembering the value of each blessing. Dancing through the winds so faint, Grace overflows the twilight dreams, Wise like the moon who has no complaint, As she fades with her soundless beams. Flowing on the seas, lulling the memoirs, In soft pastels like the rainbow’s cloak, Ordinary things glistening like the stars, As they kiss away the dread night can provoke. Pearls of compassion smile into the wind, Washing away the heavy scars of doubt, Destined for moments His love designed, Fated to shine with devotion and never burn-out. It is actually love that makes my life worthwhile. Love I can’t describe invites me to give freely. Without love inside, nothing can make me smile. It is the love I give away that motivates me – REALLY! In His life, Jesus taught us to think of others, Refusing to be selfish and greedy, egotistic… Because He taught us all about being brothers, And, the humility He teaches is quite simplistic. Love fully, with an open heart, unguarded by walls. Listen to the gospel which reminds us to walk in grace. Believe fully that Jesus comes when His child calls. Know that this love He gives is a love no doubt can erase! When I leave this world and meet the One who saves, I pray that I can honestly say, my life was never ordinary, Because He made us servants for Christ, never slaves… With Him inside, there’s more love than necessary. His love, His light, His gift of eternal life… That is enough to cause me to be wise, To give my heart and soul despite the strife. Because, I know - one day, my soul will arise!
