It rose as if by heart's desire; For a morning aglow, a need was dire. Like a pin prick to the heart, you feel A beauty nothing can conceal. It blazed within a sky so clear; So brilliant it caused a tear. And down it poured; The tranquil earth restored. Such a morning--to feel its glare! So lovely when the weather's fair. To lie upon a morning chaise; At shimmery skies to gaze. It beamed as if by God's command; And people laughed in the sand. Dispelled the mist; the flowers bloomed; In different colors were they costumed. It came as if from deepest wish, With intensity that was feverish. I dreamt the earth moved round and round-- Yellow fire blazed without a sound.

Enjoyed reading about the earth being restored, as you put it so nicely... This morning, even though it was 15 degrees in Chicago, the sun was shining bright. Felt as if my whole being had been restored. Thanks, Evelyn. Cheers, Gershon
