A Morning Resolve

I stand by my window and watch.
One by one the stars all leave me.
I am having coffee with the dawn.

The first ray of Son descending
   into my coffee cup . . .
   into my heart.
The steam from my coffee ascending
   to the heavens . . .
   into God's heart.
The yearning in my heart streaming
   to the heavens . . .
   into God's heart.
And God, standing in the heavens
   watching the Son . . .
   rising in my heart,
Leans down to breathe in
   the first rays . . .
   of my yearning,
And names it 'Morning Prayer.'

Music

If music be the spice of life, sing on . . . 
If music be refreshment for the soul, sing on . . . 
If music be our prayer to God alone, sing on . . .
Sing gloriously on!

Believe

I Believe!
I will always believe!
Even if I knew
That tomorrow
The world
Would go to pieces,
I would still plant my apple tree!
