\Universal Rhythm/

The rhythm of the sun by day
the tandem beat of moon by night
while the dance of moon flower play
and screech of owl inhabit night.

We sing our songs, our living’s score,
and labor to the tune of rain.
We play along the sandy shore
in ripples of the sea’s refrain.

In pirouettes of heart’s content,
we float about on lark’s sweet strain,
‘bove hills and valleys in arbored scent
all quilted in ripe golden grain.

The ken of man is awesome, yes,
yet microscopic, beyond compare,
beside the Great Creator’s dress
of universe’s everywhere.

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

BRAVO!!! Yes, yes, we are such a beautiful and dazzling part of life, but yet only a microcosm to the entire world of Love before us, where the owls screech and te songbirds sing and every sunrise and sunset alarms us with promises yet to come! (kiss on cheek) This is soooooo beautiful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Virginia, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
