each child a seed – v2

each child a seed,
flung into the ether,
words gifted to me
gathered on the page, the screen,
scattered to the winds…
 
musings, scribbles,
inspiration, perspiration,
made ready, scattered,
longing to find fertile soil,
to be gleaned, gathered in…

Words call me – v2

Words call me, urgent,
I am their servant,
I turn toward them,
leaning into the message,
their cry to my spirit,
to my hands beginning to write…
 
Words speak to me
they are my muse,
words call me, now,
when I am not ready,
when I pay attention,
driving, walking about…
 
Words call me, suddenly,
they woo, they challenge me,
they cry out in despair,
sometimes they shout for joy,
urgent, passionate, emotive words,
words of power, of light…
 
Words will not wait,
I must stop, I must write,
I must remember, to save them,
for the words can be fleeting,
gossamer pulled from the ether,
to be capture, to be written down…

A gift to another’s heart – v2

Our creations, art in its own sense,
All our artistic endeavors, our spirits,
all that we pour into our works,
a life force, awakening, rising,
offered, sent out into the world…
 
A gift from our heart, our spirits,
a kernel of life, of creation itself,
sent to land on an unknown shore,
a gift from one heart to another,
to heal, to give hope, to restore…
 
All that we pour out, an offering,
a piece of infinite space, of life,
treasure planted into the ether,
in time finding their true home,
on some distant shore…

offering love to others,
not knowing who needs to hear,

one heart committed to beauty,
offering something pure, holy,

apocalyptic images

scaring us, not understanding,

the messages conveyed

in the symbolic creatures

what God is trying to say.

apocalyptic images

in the prophets, the psalms,

in the Revelations;

God’s telling, spoken,

of the end times to come.

art, in all its forms

art, in all its forms

inspired by scripture

creating beauty

in response to creation

God’s word,

God’s hand on our lives

to see the beauty

of the bible

not merely to read the words

but to experience God

life in its richness

fully unfolding

joy within each word

gifted by God.

Touched by the infinite

touched by the infinite

kissed by creation

journeying out into the world

following our Savior

life is within Him

guided by God’s Spirit

the flame, the breath within us

given to us by God.

touched by the infinite

kissed by creation

giving as we have been gifted

following our Lord

life in being yoked to Him

growing where we are planted

the spark of creation

shared with us by God.

Inspired by the Word - 2

Inspired by the Word

fed by the Spirit

messages in colors

in the shape of His face

in the hands who sculpted

in the music lifted to heaven

all of creation a masterpiece

for the Glory of God, the Creator,

Creator of heaven and earth.

Given life

in a breath, in a touch

touching the Creator

the beginning, in the Garden,

Adam, the first man,

given new life.

Inspired by the Word

Inspired by the Word

the Muse of the Spirit;

feeding our souls

through the gifts

we were given

God’s love for us

Sharing the arts,

the words, the music

inspired by scripture;

a visual representation

of God’s revelation,

God’s love for us.
