Light Of God

Light, brilliant light,
sparkling heavens,
prisms of intense light,
infinite textures of light,
He brings forth the rainbow:
rose, lilac, indigo, violet,
with wide strokes, He paints:
waiting dawn and deepening twilight.

He ordains white
Breathing, luminous arctic light,
pure, virginal...without shade, without taint,
His brush, the whispering wind.
His canvas… reds, beiges and yellows,
summer, fresh spring gold, cool autumn rust,
myriad tones, silent blue dawn,
a very early dawn, without clouds.


Living immortality, unknown forests,
eternal steel, mountain heights,
endless plains, infinitude…
those of which King David sang,
and so tenderly loved…
Horizons … rejoice!
