Lilies Of Lucent Light

Lilies of lucent light, single file walking along the cloudless pathway of the songbirds' garden kingdom. How fair the child lilies, a gathering of the guiltless, in snow-white First Holy Communion dresses with lacy veils. Seven year old springtime girls with pearly rosaries, betrothed to the benevolent Lord in spirit. They receive the purity of the Communion wafer representing His covenant, they are His lilies of lucent light. ~

Dear Regina, How beautifully you capture the innocence and purity of young souls embarking on their First Holy Communion journey. I loved the imagery of lilies walking along the cloudless pathway evokes a sense of divine grace and serenity. Your words reflect the sacredness of the moment and the spiritual significance of communion with the benevolent Lord. I always remember my first communion years ago. - Blessings, my friend, Daniel
