Fully This Gi

I have been away some weeks, I’ll. Hope poetry will surface again with improved health. Have missed all of you Fully This Gift. —————- This overwhelming love that nods To the rise of each hour’s passing Throu day and on into night, Bears God’s full story Of All, so blessed With his redeeming grace… This force striking the heart With profound feelings And often mysterious aching that Impels the inner voice to lament or to sing... This driving pulse and, too, this Stirring Motion of every hungry breath , Existing By creation in the great cosmic design, Firing On within all thought and seeking to persist... This enfolding magnificence — from amoebas to mountains — Which we perceive, Then compose into prayers desiring answers, perhaps to come hidden, in each each individual, like flakes of snow... This glorious gift — not easily grasped — This immeasurable jewel,,. This is Life For each soul: Cresting on these blue waves, these scrolling oceans, glimmer The points of our passions... With this open sky displaying The criss-crossing contrails of our Pursuits... This possibly limitless hope to be Found… This Now awaits... ———————————————————————————(c) sally young Eslinger 3/31/21 Thanks be to God
