TRIUMPH OF SPIRIT IN LOVE, NATURE & ART

The Consciousness Stream

WP_20130818_13_56_38_Cinemagraph

Look carefully below

to see the stream flowing

in between the tangle of greens

and the landscape of rocks

*

Look carefully within

to hear the whispers of God

in between the jangle of loud thoughts

and the overgrowth of emotions

*

Heaven lies in the quiet

trickling like a stream

through the spaces of the silence

  2. I love this line, “Look carefully within to hear the whispers of God.” Somehow, nature always is the perfect playground for God to show his magnificence to us!

      • You’re so sweet to inquire, Ellen–my attitude is MUCH improved, which is everything, as you surely know. We’ll see what happens, but I’m pretty sure I can over-come the chronic pain, rise victorious–I’ve got God’s daily help, and my wonderful family of friends here on the blogs. Who could ask for more? Much love to you.
