Abecedarian

ABECEDARIAN


Amid  the clamour of the world
Beauty remains,  a
Clear concept,   solid yet  
Diaphanous,   wherein I can
Every day with surety
Feel my gratitude  for
God’s precious irreplaceable wonder,  His
Holy joy,  his  bounteous joy,  His
Illimited  Joy, knowing no restriction,  
Joy which powers all,
Keeping us breathing and living, and all 
Life great  and small   
Moving, growing, reaching out for Him, 
Not  overtly, blatantly,  not
Obviously in its intent, nevertheless   
Persisting  -   albeit 
Quietly  -  surviving each day and  
Recreating  itself  in the very dawns and 
Sunsets,  in order  
To  resist and even 
Undermine the  effort,  the hostility, the rigidity of evil, in a   
Very  warm and 
Welcoming  all-absorbing  effort, as seen in   
Xanadu’s  bright character : fresh energy, and perpetually
Younthful  
Zeal.
