Great Un-Manifest

An awesome power without form In silent atoms slowly drawn Sometimes pure and innocent Or total evil, malcontent, Its opposition holds it fast Like Yin & Yang Or Light and Dark This presence in a sunrise felt In friendship's smile or anger's wrath In mountain's height or oceans depth The in and out of every breath In every wind that stirs a leaf And every life, however brief The constant earth, the shifting sand All feel this mighty, gentle hand.

I had thought it was about God... and then reading your response to Andrea I guess I was right. I just love how there's so many intense statements and acronyms, all to end on those last two words... gentle hand. The same hand that formed the moon and stars is at the same time caring and gentle... very well penned!

I am glad that came through. When I was on our farm and closer to Nature I felt closer to God. He really does seem closer at hand through his natural marvels. Thanks for your encouraging comments I missed you.

It is really about our Creator...something that came through from meditation a few years back. Thanks for reading, dear.

'yeah...it happens all of a sudden...I guess so much of a woman's power is in her beauty. I hate that I have become 'invisible' to men when once I got wolf whistles most of the time...lol
