The dawn is yet to be seen, yet I am here with coffee in hand, drinking my fill from the early riser’s mood. There is darkness still embracing the clear sky and stars wink down, glimmering and flashing, creating a lively sparkle across the heavens. I hear the silence through the solitude, echoing a rhythmic breath of inspiration on halos of laughter that caresses the ever after. I long to whisper joy through the night, hurling music through the dim dreams that reverberate across space, creating a melodious wave of exhilaration through the ambiance of feathery impressions lifting the tone to a tenderness that feeds my yearnings with healing, hope, happiness that flows through me, purifying my insights and coloring me in hues of brilliant flames.

morning simplifies
sorrow changes to laughter
healing hearts with hope

Prayers of praise lift to the heavens, breaking through the thick night that covers the morning in a layer of gray. Starlight is soft and details of a full moon stroke the black coat of heavy air as it lays quietly across the sky, washing everything it touches in a coat of shadowy darkness that reaches through the heart’s longings to touch on the insights that prepare one for hearing God’s voice as it sends out its still small whisper to the listener. I turn my attention to the heavens, listening and hearing the intimate stroke that comes down and caresses me with a gentle hand, one that knows my ups and downs, my ins and outs, my entire being… laid open, naked to the gaze of One who knows me better than I can even know myself. He smiles a warmth through me that gives me a second chance to be assured that I have all I need. My prayer for this moment has been answered with a kiss from the One who blesses me more than I can possibly thank Him for and I know I am loved beyond my own imagination or hopes. I am loved.
~
worship warms my breath
a whisper, just before dawn
quenching dismal doubts
