Welkin Wonder

The sun sets in soulful silence, Its blissful beauty paints pearlescent sky, Lovely light spreads soft its peace, Like learned Rumi ruminating; Poets praise sighing Sol, The welkin wonder soothes senses ~ A cool cause to glorify God.

Dear Joanna, sunset has a unique way of resetting our internal rhythm. Throughout the day, our minds are caught up in active, goal-driven momentum. I love your use of "welkin," the firmament, to frame nature as a bridge to something greater. Awe isn't something we have to manufacture, it simply requires standing still long enough under an open sky to let peace wash over us. So serene, beautifully musical, and timelessly reverent. Lovely work, Joanna. Blessings, Daniel
