~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Something other than my heart
Told me to listen, to hear – then start
Writing the joy, the peace, the light
Prayers that reveal the stars of night
Shining quietly, up in the skies
Assuring me of love’s sweet surprise
Something quiet, gentle and flowing
Revealing love’s tender glowing
Comforting hearts with night’s song
Breaking through the shadows so wrong
Awakening the moon with her guitar
As the sun sits to write her memoir
Something abides inside my soul
Clinging to hope that I’ll be made whole
While the silence feeds me serenity
Beyond the secret of life, heart’s amenity
Graceful and wild, the sea succumbs
In a world of darkness, love’s voice overcomes
Something wild, free and blessed
Beyond the seas there is love confessed
Silencing all the doubts that might dissuade
Sending my heart assurance to persuade
God in His heaven reaches down to amaze
Quieting my soul with His grace as I praise
