Welcome

Primitive religion is not believed, it is danced!

Arthur Darby Nock

Earth's crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God;
And only he who sees takes off his shoes;
The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.

Can God Come Out to Play?

Morning has broken
the sun sneaks up
peeking out over the
seven devils

light dances through the trees
gently warming
cold air

dust and smoke linger
blurring the
visage of the trees
and tickling my nose

the horses
take flight
leaping
and kicking with the joy
of an autumn morning

the day is here
can God come out to play?

____________________________________________________

 Morning has broken, like the first morning

Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for them springing fresh from the Word.

Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven
Like the first dewfall, on the first grass
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness where His feet pass.

Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
Born of the one light, Eden saw play
Praise with elation, praise every morning
God's recreation of the new day.
