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”
