Thought

Longing rise for solitude

Travel to the hills and dales

Each step a stirring gratitude

As clouds float like misty sails

Seek a cave to meditate

Cold water washes body’s dirt

For inner life will radiate

When tempter can’t itself assert

Deer and birds before have been

Quenching thirst by sacred lake

Enhancing beauty of the scene

Drinking deep with eyes awake

Tower round, church, water flow

Against forested mountains green

In fertile valleys nestled below

Air fresh is crisp and pure and clean

A sanctuary makes the separate whole

Is sacred ground where foot treads

Pilgrims walk to soothe the soul

As nature weaves its season’s threads

Prayer

O Lord, I offer you heartfelt thanks for holding my hand as you guide me through your colourful nature display. Manifest as flora, fauna, waters, air and mountains. O Beauty of beauties. I rest in Thy serenity and love.
