Messiah

You know that I love you, Lord.

You are all things to me.

When all else is gone, you remain.

Who knows how long I have loved you?

You are the answer to every question,

Source and fulfillment the same,

Universal and microscopic,

Truth incarnate,

Perfection embodied,

My beautiful, personal Messiah.

Faces

All the many faces
That you wear to share yourself -
The force that drives the wind,
The formation high in flight,
The glare upon the water
From the peeking rays of light
Behind clouds as soft as cotton
Floating peaceful 'cross the sky
As the piercing call of hawks
Ask to bid the day goodbye,
And the green of landscape fades
Into sunset bringing night -
The mask of nature showing
Us your heart, revealed as LIFE.
