The Talking Circle

Hand to hand
Chin to chest
Prayer in heart
Live God’s test
To converse
Young to old
Meek to bold
Words of gold
Hidden among
Each word's sliver
Skeins of silver
And silence delivers

Thought

Preciously wrought

From spoken word

God is heard.

This is deeply spiritual Sunshine... the transition form word to thought is very special it truly describes how faith is built.  Marvelous loved it all!

Brian, Kit, Alle', Ethome...thank you all.  This did not start out as spiritual, but it certainly ended up that way.  Now, back to the drawing board...
