Lullaby

Lullaby

 

Under the sway of water lapping against the rocks

beneath the rhythm of waves rippling through grass
below the hum of the hive

and the velvet lament of the morning doves

just beyond the sound of lovers lips parting

 

there is a living quietude

susurrant music almost out of range

divinity whispering into the ether

 

it sometimes wakes me just after the first stars appear

or takes my hand between the loons calling for their mates in
the vaporous swirls above the lake

there and not there- but substantial

beckoning me to follow

murmuring soft promised secrets

 

Sleep casts its net over the day

my heart beats in unison with that incorporeal pulse

and I slip quietly into the whisper where God

rocks the world in His arms

 

-kl

For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. Romans 1:20 NIV
