Phenomenal Everyday Miracles

In the gentle of this day
soft expressions abound
in the light of the rays
gently cascading down

Aged old eyes wide open
with the brilliance of young
on the wind a whisper of
ancient songs being sung

A phenomenal day for miracles

Not in me, not in me
not to see, not to see
grace and beauty
surrounding all of we

The dreamers dreaming
even though bombs are falling
hurricanes rage, quoth the sage
terribleness reigns in places
yes, there are abject faces
we hold them all in our graces

Praying for phenomenal miracles

Looser, looser, let loose the grip
on hope and peace and quietude
sending forth on wing of dove
phenomenal miracles of this, our love

So today, this moment, this space in time
should you read these words, then be kind
spread a phenomenal miracle, one of yours
and let your prayers be silently heard.

It's a pleasure to post this today,
because 53 years ago, my father was
asked, "Who do you wish to save?"
Fortunately, Mom and I both survived,
and for me?That was miracle enough,
and I continue to thank God for any
Miracle of Life.

I have learned a lot from you, Karilea.(in ways you will probably never know)
You are always so gracious in your style.

It is a pleasure to know of you here and I always wish for you the best.

Happy Birthday   
(glad there wasn't the need for a choice either)

I think Inked says it all; you give a graciousness to your writing that lifts many, including me!  May many joyfilled birthdays lie before you.  Ken

The yawn of a dawn will hasten the light

­The day itself is
A commonplace miracle
All men know this thing
*
And yet some rise disgruntled
Never embracing the gift
-------------------------------
Potion for a phenomenal miracle:
Mix in equal parts...

A gentle day with:
Rays of light
Whisper of wind
Beauty and grace
Dreamers
A hurricanes rage
Prayer and a dove
Time and space
Silence

Stirred by sunshine who serves,
Equal portions to all mankind

­Manaste________ice

I really like this

Words that cast net of silken thread
Capturing unwary
To pleasure

This is wonderful Kari

into this night i wonder, it's morning that i dread, another day of knowing of, the path i fear to tread.
