Like a spider who plucks
Web strands in its advance
To the center,
Dazzling Dawn inches up the almost blue sky
Casting wisps of crimson and yellow
Between giant fir watchmen.
Our souls watch and wait
In the weather of our lives
For Dawn to enlighten and enliven
The dark places.
She advances with intention
Choosing hues that saturate shadows
Lingering in the recesses
Of experience and expectation.
Color drenches the dark
Until we emerge inebriated with hope
Fully-dawned and daunted
No more.

I’m touched deeply by this poem/picture, especially: “Until we emerge inebriated with hopeFully-dawned and daunted No more.” I am so grateful for experiences in nature that can give me hope to keep on being true to myself.Polly From: Spirituality Without Borders: Reflections on Spiritual Practice To: pjdruffel@yahoo.com Sent: Sunday, November 30, 2014 8:36 AM Subject: [New post] Fully-Dawned #yiv5110374431 a:hover {color:red;}#yiv5110374431 a {text-decoration:none;color:#0088cc;}#yiv5110374431 a.yiv5110374431primaryactionlink:link, #yiv5110374431 a.yiv5110374431primaryactionlink:visited {background-color:#2585B2;color:#fff;}#yiv5110374431 a.yiv5110374431primaryactionlink:hover, #yiv5110374431 a.yiv5110374431primaryactionlink:active {background-color:#11729E;color:#fff;}#yiv5110374431 WordPress.com | rita kowats posted: ” Like a spider who plucksWeb strands in its advanceTo the center,Dazzling Dawn inches up the almost blue skyCasting wisps of crimson and yellowBetween giant fir watchmen.Our souls watch and wait In the weather of our” | |
