Essence: Discovering Beauty and Love

Posted by Fred Steiner on March 28, 2011 - 12:49pm

"Essence: Discovering Beauty and Love"

A simple beauty, a chorus of love
accompanies each still dawn
until it emerges again.

Listen, watch, breathe, discover
the gifts dancing, lurking,
hidden in plain sight.

Blessings for children and elders,
drawing each toward life
abundant, enough.
The essence of it all.

H.W. Thomas

"A Persistent Decree"
