Across the vast expansive sky,
making its way in colours fly —
rose, golden, green and violet.
Arching its hue in feline stretch,
above the trees,
against the clouds.
Rain and sunbeam joining hands-
to celebrate the season change.
Molding land to sky above —
dance with the Creator — the message, Love.
Across the years in time and space,
making our way in peace and grace.
Poised on the rim of firmament-
stretching our minds in endless search-
above the earth’s
vast stratosphere-
God with man, made manifold,
to strengthen souls with faith untold.
Molding man to realms above —
dance with the Creator-the message, Love.
Cathy Jeanes is a member of St. Matthew on-the-Plains Burlington.
Glorious

last night I wanted to wake you
wake you
to tell of the stunning sapphire butterfly
resting on the squash leaves, the
sunglow blossoms
flexing flexing flexing wings
I wanted to
but it was dark
and His sapphire wouldn’t have been as glorious
outside my dream
