The world Narrowed Down

No belief is neutral.

Every one has the power to dictate

Each decision your make.

misty morning

heavy sky dripping from the branches

the world narrowed down

to trees disappearing in the gray

there is no evidence

of mountains soaring

skies blue

no trace of the sun

only this

grayness

then clouds part

and the world is restored

in all its vast beauty

some days

O Sacred one

my world is narrow

squeezed and compressed

by thinking that cannot contain

the grandeur of Sacred love

I can only see vaguely

into the mist

and so I judge

and despair

until the greyness

is dispelled

by one wild beam of sunlight

grace
