Just a chance encounter
A woman cut my hair
But of greater value
Where words she had to share
From another country
A Mother and a wife
But those of her first words
“I have a beautiful life”
She offered her story
Of near death and of fear
Tragedy avoided
Power of her prayer
Simple of the daily
In sharing of the bread
Add water to the soup
An even more are fed
A lesson of perspective
When seen in God’s view
That we all can say
My life is beautiful too!
This day begins
With anxiety
A stressful world
Of complexity
A pause of prayer
Internally
A quieting
Just You and me
And found within
You let me see
A beautiful
Simplicity
Just to love
In Your love be
Of focus, One
To follow Thee
A pause into stillness
A gaze in the view
Just above horizon
Such a beautiful blue
Simple emptying
Above falling into
Spirit drifts along
With a cloud or two
One that calms the soul
Connection to the deep
Prayer of easy being
Comfort here to seep
Message which to carry
With humble look above
Providence of cover
One of precious love
How beautiful
Your light this day
Reflection of
Colors arrayed
How beautiful
Your precious gift
Our daily bread
The soul to lift
How beautiful
Your living Word
Let soul be lead
By Spirit heard
How beautiful
Your blessed grace
Our gift, Your light
Souls to embrace
The Word is written
A truth that is freeing
We are wonderfully made
A beautiful being
Souls to encounter
This day of seeing
Sister and brother
A beautiful being
Awesome are You
Our God of believing
Present right here
A beautiful Being
Fully to share
This moment of fleeing
The binding of three
A beautiful being
Let me let
This moment be
Right now right here
Not about me
Not to judge
Not to control
To be of it
To dwell with soul
A beautiful is
Blessed perfectly
Just to receive
To be here fully
Now I am here
To see clearly
Me in this moment
One of this beauty
