 "Reaching the light" by Christiane Dore * * * Reaching for the Light What kept me caged in strings of sadness, weighing me heavily down in a granitic grip of gloom? Why did I miss dawn’s call for the new day’s celebration? Voices forged by hell’s fire drowned out the sweetness of the awakening morn and I lacked the energy to raise my welcome song. But while my heart slipped close to the breaking point, my soul sent a potent signal of higher divine vibration throughout my very core, reminding me of my power: You are a child of eternity! Align with your God-self! Beyond the noisy environment peace beckons me into its orbit. I deeply inhale particles of love exhaling all trace of distress. Airy lightness takes command inducing a state of grace, I feel the profound connection to the higher spheres of life, to the myriad of Angels, to the omnipresent divine Light. I raise my arms now to the sky recognizing the gift of the day. Ready to smile in gratitude for the spark of celestial truth that always finds the way to manifest within my heart whenever I lose sight of who I really am: A child of eternity, born of the divine Light… * * * |

ohhh! such a loving reminder that we are never alone! Anxious thoughts loom and there is every need for doves to gather. If we stand still in the light, they do! Thank you so much for this tender beauty of a poem. ~ Klassy |

Oh, my goodness Margherita! If you write like this in your third language, your first language poetry must be beyond-the-clouds-beautiful! You truly understand the nature of Nature and the wonder of God. Thank you for the experience. - Owl |

It is so good, Margherita, to be reminded so gracefully that I'm not the only one who understands these things. Not only your own words, but those of the people who have commented on them. Clearly this is not a whistle only dogs can hear. :-) And you did it without stifling dogma or hobbling cliches. That's the whipped cream and cherry. Encore!! Oh yes, and awesome picture!! A poem's just a poet in a word. |
