Glisten


"Pale hoar-frost glittered in shady slips..."
-Anne Glenny Wilson



God of wonder
whose love reaches around
corners

-dark-

to find me

Nestle in me
a
courageous faith
that lets loose
the icy heart
and
glistens
gold
at
sunrise

  1. Holly, you capture beauty so well, its all whimsy and wondrous your words on this page.
    Still thinking of how to do the tandem a line from you a line from me, logistically. Journey to Epiphany kd Sullivan, is doing a community poem. I love to play scrabble, so I am thinking more of a line from you a line from me. Pick a topic? Thanks for kind words at my place, our church is in a painful schism. Grievous spirit.

  3. Elizabeth, I am so sorry about all that is occurring in your church. That pain cuts deep, I'm sure. Praying for peace and grace to rain down there.
