If I must weep
let me cry
in the tongue of angels
so that bitterness
be made beauty
agony to harmony
within
a choir of seraphim
so that any who will hear
have ears only for the jubilee
of "holy, holy, holy..."

May it echo
in resounding hum
quiver first
in sweet refrain
build note upon exquisite note
sustain
and burst in exaltation.

A psalm to sing,
to touch,
to heal...

Let us dance in glory,
as it was meant to be.

"let us dance in glory" Wow! I love this poem. Simply magnificent and so inspiring!
Ellie

Summers haunting melody
that awakens
the butterflies,
calling them to join
the dance
in their silent song
of praise to God.

Loved it then, love it now!

And especially this verse...

May it echo
in resounding hum
quiver first
in sweet refrain
build note upon exquisite note
sustain
and burst in exaltation.
       and
Let us dance in glory,
as it was meant to be.

I'm dancing

I shall think of it as "the 21st century psalm. I like it.

To reminisce the ides of February ... A poem I recall most fondly ... rests here before me now ... your first I believe
exquisite writing ... Inspired by it then
