A Psalm In Flight To God

** A Psalm’s Flight to God ** Lord God, my love reaches to You on an imagined flight — Leaping With my wished-for wings. Soaring! To the midst of a determined flock Setting out To cross hemispheres, homeward; Heaven-ward By instincts you instilled… By way of wind waves — riding or battling The air: through the impassioned arias Of Earth’s orbiting. Wing tip to wing tip, Magnificent flocks — I shall never see — Beyond any range I can imagine, Above the never-scaled mountains of sunlit clouds… Beauty alive to inner eyes: Intent on a sight and flight In the focus of your glory, Lord… The route — still but a hint in my heart — I guard And by which I patiently wait, singing psalms, wondering If that could be The rainbow tip of your brush I see painting sails On my soul… ———————————————————————- (c) sally young eslinger 3/22 Thanks be to God
