Grace Sighs

God’s grace is not a one-time event, but a continuous flow of blessings ~ author unknown



In the ache of summer’s rain,
	Pouring out its silent grace
		Songs betrayed by the crazy days,
Moments parading, marching on, lost in passage
	Between light and dark
		Happy and sad,
			Wrong and right
				Good and bad…

In the doubting of a heart,
	Where pieces of gentle prevent the fears
		From leaving their mark, their scars, their tears…

In the music, rhythmic as life’s dreams,
	Stirring the wonders, the feelings, the beliefs
		Soaring on winds – like the crisp, falling leaves
Silence, breathless as the softest stories,
	Verses, prayers, rising on the air, awakening
		Light beyond the words, 
			Rhymes in wisdoms
				Beyond the soul’s feeling…

In the starlight colors, graceful and sure,
	Melodies of light, poetry concealing
		Wonders who confide the twilight
	Healing those who hurt, sensing
		What it is to give back a smile,
Replacing the dark with starlight,
	Blue with breathtaking…

In His eyes, the colors of life, the song, where I belong
Inside, I know He is the why… I’m grateful for this grace that is mine!
