The Inner Circle Outward Turned Hands joined together lightly fit The circle closing tightly knit The welcome warming now begin Kindling healing light within Ah, holy is this silent night Where dwell we ‘compassed by this light Let nature sing Let nature sing…. The oceans of His Majesty Its secret sounds…perceive We ask it humbly baptize us Its blessings to receive Within the One in All We place each one by one We ask it in thy holy name That here thy will be done Now arms as branches rising, pointing Heavenward stretched to His annointing Feel the gentle breezes playing Here among us swaying, swaying Ah, lightly does it touch us And lightly do we feel it As the hem of gossamer garment Of the Living..Healing..Spirit Joe Lamando |

Thank you everyone for your kind comments. This poem is based on an actual experience. If you ever have a prayer circle, try it holding hands with your backs to the center, outward facing. Something about it is magical. Joe |

This is a beautiful read, Joe. The outward facing circle must surely heighten inner spiritual healing. You've sculpted this experience with great artistry. |
