I am a wanderer. I would say that I am a seeker, but sometimes I have no idea what I might be seeking, so I will stick with wanderer. This blog is more a public journal than anything. I don't claim to have life figured out. I simply stumble from mystery to mystery, and share my reflections along the way. Sometimes I feel burdened, and trudge. Sometimes? Well sometimes grace breaks through, and its time to dance.

The Face of God
..
Dear God, please reveal to us
your sublime
beauty
that is everywhere, everywhere, everywhere,
so that we will never again
feel frightened
my divine love, my love,
please let us touch
your face
St.
Francis of Assisi

the light shines in the darkness
gently blossoming
from closed night
to morning
in the pale light
snow falls
softly
drifting down
the ground
a sparkling
white comforter
embracing a shivering earth
smooth and clean
as yet unmarred
like the virgin beauty of a child’s soul
a horse stands
white mantled
staring over a fence capped
with snow
waiting
and I can only stand
and stare
in
wonder
my soul caressed
by
the beautiful
face of
God
