Devotion Poem Soul Aflame

*** Devoted — Soul Aflame ***

	( A Devotion Series Poem.   Written for our one, holy ABBA)

With a folding into 
 Divinely reaching Love —

My stilled soul in an instant, 
 flared, leapt
   — to a Return
   of devotion to our holy,
  Creating author.

In a physically-felt arrest —
Bursting flames within a this soul
  Rose swiftly,
In a transcending rush
As if pulling
All the blue sky along with it — 
Up

 Leaving here…
Luminescence _
   
With some few remaining
Shadows tossing about 
— unable to conceal or threaten;
Turned to 
  a purer purpose; 
  melded
With colors magnified
 in moving
     along the eternal infinite.

My soul, so taken by the Holy Spirit
  And ignited 
     by my heart’s wordless worship
        into communion
Thru to the prayer’s ending,  “Alleluia!  Amen!” 
Then — Warmly ringed in that peace —
of
God Alone. 

Bearing a tuned waiting
 Upon our Lord.

Selah.
