"the 'Father of Light!'"

"Draw near unto God and He will draw near unto you.
Resist the devil, and he shall flee from you...."
                           ~ The Book of James Chapter 4 ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~             




Silken slivers....

Aside the rolling sea

Falling from the knowing stars

Beyond these swaying trees ~

Shadows playing, now

Beneath their dancing leaves

Twirling toward the waiting ground

Amid this summer's breeze ~

Moonbeams....

Splashing upon their journied canvas

Colliding, with the darkened skies

Celestial colours of heavenly wonders

These painting's, before my joyful eyes ~

Turning toward such whispers, now 

Which penetrate the darkened night

Echoes of Angelic splendours

Gliding, atop the timeless tide....

Twinkle twinkle, you silken stars 

Now I know, just who, you are!

Walking toward the waiting shoreline ~

From beneath these swaying trees

Endless lights of brightened wisdom

Amid this summers breeze

Truth, beyond the promised horizon 

Within this place I've seen ~

And heard Angelic voices

Whisper, "Your Light," deep inside of me

"The Father, of All Creation!"....

.............."My Soul"............

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

Now waltzing upon, "Your Eternal, Sea!" ~

Hi John This is a very deep and dramatic piece and a wonderful colourful portrayal of God's creation.As you say the 'Father of Light'and also Love.I appreciate your remarks on my own write. I don't quite understand about your comment re- enmity Didn't Jesus say "Love one another"Religion is a very emotive subject.All I know I love my Divine Father. I am nothing without Him and the Love He shows me and fills my whole being with I want to share with others. God's LOVE to you June(sylvia)
