And it’s by the mist
The world disappears
When wonder abounds
The soul comes aware
And it’s in the mist
Sweet song sings clear
Blessed be the soul
Of praises to hear
And it’s through the mist
The light does appear
Forming the vision
Of beauty to share
And it’s of the mist
This moments’ a prayer
Of Spirit surrounding
Is of everywhere
Of advancing years
Morning prayers to subsist
I’ve come to be
A friend of the mist
Of water and field
Of dwelling to drift
From earth unto heaven
Of being to lift
A lesson of soul
Of a time to be
Of one to let go
When the Lord calls me
A lesson of practice
Of faith here to see
One of a moment
Or eternity
Of one to awake
A vision to be
Before mind can go
With souls’ eye to see
A vapor of being
In pasture be drawn
Losing oneself
In the mist before dawn
A journey with into
Of silence to fill
A setting of prayer
A gift to be still
For our deep desire
To be of the greater
Come be within
The breath of Creator
Something beyond the light
This dawning here surrounds
A sacrament of Spirit
Is laid upon the ground
Dew of the anointing
Of Holy view to share
The mist of trinity
Of light, water and air
A moving of the Spirit
Vision of a prayer
Swirling, drifting, rising
Caressing soul with care
Blessing of consuming
A treasure of beauty
Wrapped in sweet surrender
A sacred place to be
A blessing of rising
Of prayer to subsist
One to fall into
A morning of mist
A statement of faith
To give up control
To dwell in unseen
Food for the soul
The comforting Presence
Of silence is found
Easy the knowing
The Spirit surrounds
A palette of offer
To contemplate
The dwelling within
Your being so great
The morning mist lingers
The sunrise pours through
The Lord clearly shines
And the Spirit dwells too
So silent the rising
As birdsong begins
Stillness is drawing
A movement within
Inner of warming
A chill in the air
Prayer of beyond
Of being right here
And a reminder
Wherever we go
A beautiful comfort
Of peace here to know
Blessed be the morning
Into soul of seeing
Sacredness is shared
In the mist of being
Holy filtered light
Of gentle colors shown
In witness of the moment
Is the known unknown
Easy be the letting
Surrendering of grace
Comfort of divine
Of welcoming embrace
Of Your Presence dwelling
From the forest deep
To rolling pastures green
Into my being seep
Stillness be the offer
Peace of binding be
Drawing into One
Of beloved unity
Every living being
Offers gratitude
Safe within the sharing
Its’ inner solitude
Something of the morning mist
Finds comfort in my soul
Perhaps serves a reminder
That I’m not in control
A drawing of consuming
An easy, fall into
That takes the soul a drifting
Here of finding You
Soul of the arising
In shroud of comfort bring
Finding of the Spirit
Within our offering
A parallel of light
That only soul can see
A gift of finding love
In this discovery
An observation
Curious I find
A walk into the mist
Can change my state of mind
Found in the silence
A surface of stilling
Peace of existence
Moves the heart willing
One of the Spirit
Of sweet dissipating
In prayer, letting go
Of the soul rising
Creations example
Of water to be
In drifting above
The same flows through me
Found in the dawning
In clear virgin air
Between light and water
Awakening here
Spires of mist
Rise in the air
A mystical dance
In form of sweet prayer
Drawn to the light
An offer unto
A witness of calling
Of heavenly view
The light of love
Cast it’s embrace
Joy in the bonding
A blessing of grace
A treasure of capture
Of moments insight
Love in the binding
Of Spirit and light
