Effervescence

"conjoined with the whole
we play our life role
exuding a scent
granting love consent" 
_______________________

Conjoin me in God’s divine love
and fill me with an effervescence,
that I can fizzle with fervor
for doing good to others with unceasing zest.
This, I believe is the role and call of my life.

Make me a flower, delicate and sweet,
exuding redolent scent into the blowing breeze, 
pouring joy into distressed hearts.

I wish to be made into a violin, from whose strings,
dulcet tune flows to soothe the ailing nerves.

How I wish to be a rain cloud,
sailing over the breadth and length of skies 
showering cooling droplets on to thirsting mouths.

Fill me with an effervescence that I get ignited as a lamp 
dispersing  beams of light,
dissipating darkness from the mazy depths of gloom.

Make me a vessel full with love to pour out 
into the empty pitchers.
Make me a barge with sails filled by the wind
that I can ferry the sinking souls
to safer shores of life.

Let every atom in me throb with an effervescence
and let it eject forth in jets to form a gushing stream.

In God’s grand design, each one is a part
forming a composite whole, together in harmony
So, is it not incumbent on our part to share and partake
in God’s never ceasing reservoir of love!

Maria Williams September 3, 2025 at 3:40 AM Dear Valsa, such a radiant and soulful piece. I love how each image—flower, violin, rain cloud, lamp—carries its own gentle strength, yet all flow together in a prayer of service and love. Your words shine with devotion and a longing to bring light, comfort, and healing to others...Hugs

Divine. A side note: people think that we must do things physically, actively out with the public. What we publish in our hearts, unites with the human stream, flowing into a sea of Universal Consciousness. Be positive. Think it. Feel it. And it is saturated for all. Beautiful write, my friend. Blessings.
