Startling as the rise of the moon On autumn’s twilight, beautiful as June still breath of joy, falling like stars silent truths… stunning as the august wind warming to the touch, grace descends music in glorious praises, a maze reflecting the wonders, unfaded glistening through heavy hearted leaves rustling like stardust, in the trees scent of smokey forests who grieve knowing the moon is losing its clarity as summer fades into the dusky colors erasing the song of laughter, the buzz of bees and gestures of past times when the night trembles and believes freedom has come to the distant planets lightening lingers, sliding through the skies skating upon Saturn’s rings, glowing with the dew who drenches each rose and speaks her poetry to the sunrise… showing the world what it means to shine reminiscent of the fluid flavors of light, breaking through the black, a sea of night moon toasting the dark with her stories risking all the stars who pierce the dreams, awakened by desires to tread through endless leaves, falling gestures of faith and need flowing like rivers, caressing smooth stones awakening the spirit who surely knows peace this stirring is clever as the dance a waltz with joy, a tango with grace… skating upon Saturn’s rings, revealing the sway of sensations – gentling as the need breaking through the heavens, on angel’s wings wonders hearts shall treasure as they grieve the forest’s dwindling, waning, dying so we can’t see what it is that remembers the beautiful, the intimacy, the kindness between graves of leaves and woodland calm, the music of serenity sung all night long. As my mind grows older and I feel weak the blessings of a stardust quiet soothes my soul, whispering amity to my spirit singing good will to my heart and soul relieving me so that I can feel the winds, the stars who glisten in the heavens, reaching out to stir the reflections graceful as the wistful of a dandelion seed who reaches out to the light, believes wherever there is love – even this weed can bring to life a lithe friend. Rise, my heart and seek the winds who toss the waves and stir the sands, see the music that hearts agree is the song of silence, awakened by belief, the song of hope who is always brave the song of a love who abides in the ways we seek heaven’s Son, the music of One who stills the winds and is always willing to forgive, even those who fail, again and again, giving into the sin who is depraved coming again to risk the life who isn’t familiar with His great sacrifice. On her rings, the heart colored in faith glides across the rings, a silent truth – a purpose skating so we can see beyond eternity the wonder of His light, His grace the melody of love that stills the hate love that lives to give away the beautiful in hope, the delight who grows because God’s Son gives second chances. His miracle is light that shines into the hereafter His wonder is love that abides – is everlasting He is the answer to sin – He is the best friend to every soul who hears, the love that doesn’t pretend the love that seeks out the sinner forgives and gives peace within, peace that remembers His love truly frees hearts His love surely sees the worst and still gives us hope!
