~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Jasmine sunset, collapsing between the stars
Like tangerine laughter in expressions of poetic
Wars, with everlasting passions, 
Hesitating on the breath of a song,
More powerful – glimpse of God’s gestures,
Coloring the twilight with the flow of flames,
Smashing through the gentle pines,
Releasing the music that brings silence her grace,
Melodies between heaven and earth,
Listening to the tunes that tremble through the soul,
Unbending into clever thoughts of still light,
Flowing through the warmth of the spirit who knows
God is with us – in the melancholy moments,
In the seas of precious solace,
In the winds that restore our purpose,
In the dreams who prepare us to risk failures,
To find the answers in themes of praises,
To ask whatever our heart measures as reflecting
Kindness, mercy, visions of holiness,
Left by prayers, clinging to destiny’s curiosities,
In gossamer threads, like the spider’s silken web,
Heartfelt and heated noises from the summer
Who bends to the winds and stirs joys,
Brought to life on surreal echoes from memories
Sincere, genuine silhouettes – in the shadows,
Where the sun casts a heavy breath,
Relieving the darkness of its doubt, restoring
The serenity in each blessing felt
By hasty hearts, bound for the wisdom
Connecting the meaning of a lasting faith
And the heart healed by fate,
Who is unescapable – His plan never fades,
Never fails, never forsakes…
His plan doesn’t neglect the honest praise
That lingers on the souls of those who can see
Beyond the jasmine sunset,
Into the twilight melody – the sea
Of grace, genuine and unaffected by the tide.
It is the promise when heart and soul collide.
It is the eternal where believers abide.
It is the moment in time when I first decide…
To love as He loves,
Without self-seeking relations,
With altruistic worship of the Son
Who lives beyond the sigh of a setting sun!
