August 1984

Look! the stars

their courses move

                        ballet

            eternal

                        beauty

            unending

symphonies of light

blessing

this distant shore

beyond sight

            can we see

                        really?

their beauty

with eyes so small

            or feel

their glory

with failing lives

YES!

we can

I believe Lord

quench my unbelief*

* Joe Wise “I Believe Lord”

from “Songs for the Journey”

The first one of mine that Ev

liked, she gave it an A+.
