Clouds come, I watch it
through the haze.
Slowly, faithfully
it burns all haze away.
As it dances
teasing me across
the field
I bend my cheek
it kisses my face
I long to stare
to turn my full gaze
as deep as I did
in the midst of the haze
but brilliant
far too brilliant
is the beauty
that meets my eyes.
It shines far above
and I, a mere human
love, yet can not bear
the full power of its warmth.
It plays along the water
a sweet song I see
but do not hear
not with a mortal ear.
It laughs through
the trees, makes
jewels come alive.
All things grow towards it
all diminish and fade
in the depth of its light,
without it there is no beauty.
And at night, in the dark
it takes no rest
it needs no rest
I see it still
reflected high
looking calmly, peacefully
down on me.
Then, and only then
in the shadow of its might
can I turn and have my fill
in the stillness of the night.
For its rays and its beauty
are only a taste and a touch
of your greater
much greater glory.
Very nice. The pictures go really well with it. Hope you're settled into to your new home. Blessings.
