Here's A Peek From Chapter One: Confessions

When I Am Still

7_Queenstown

When I am still
And hear the snow falling
And notice moon’s shadows glistening on white,

I feel the company
Of a silent Presence
Holding my hand.

Then … I’m so glad
I listened to my
Ridiculous desire to
Believe in the unbelievable.

A Second Glimpse From Chapter Three: Gestures Of The Divine

I Think It Takes Courage

IMG_9167_

I think it takes courage
to venture into the dark.

So I make certain
I always take a bit of light with me.

I am grateful
for each small flicker
of illumination.

When I can see through my fear,
I am awed
by what
the shadows
are willing to
tell me.
