Heaven takes a breath
then breathes out Love,
a Child wakens.
Bows of Colour
whispered
as the air filters a new Light.
Stilled
by the Cosmic Embrace
of Humility,
the world changes depth
perception,
Music oxygenating
the space in between
the prostrating tears of angels and those
undone
trembling
at the foot
of that mysterious cradle
of vulnerability
Divine.
say no to clowns 
Just sublime . . .

Hi Vanessa. And yes, as all
the hobbits in the Shire are asleep, the silent moonlight
takes the soul to flight.
The festivities now relagated to fond memories.
You last post, Vanessa, a
timely reminder of what
truly eternally matters.

Yes, home for Christmas.
But packing for Nepal, and
India. Flying out next week.
Visiting an orphanage, and
an old folks home in
Kathmandu, delivering some
aid. Then travelling down to
Delhi. We’ll be there for India’s
70th anniversary of Independence.
Looking forward to the fireworks.

Yes thanks, we’re travelling
with friends who go every

barter for a bargain).

Indeed…and the moon lately has been just beautiful.
Ah, we try to festive through all 12 days, and then some 🙂
Thanks David, this has been a really important Christmas for my family. I couldn’t not write something, or rather re-write.

As a non-believer who loves the great art and music that religion has inspired, I am very impressed, Vanessa, a gorgeous piece.

I’ve been well. Thank you for asking.
How have you been?
Sometimes, its a good thing to take a break from WordPress. Re-energize the mind.
The year has started good so far. I posted 2 new poems. I’ve evolved more than before.
You are welcome my friend. Hope you stop by my page soon. 🙂

I have been doing okay, thanks. We have had the nicest holiday season in quite a few years, so I am very grateful. This year I am going to get more serious about health as well!!
Will definitely visit soon 🙂
