Little joys.

Marvellous happy it was to be
Alone, and yet not solitary.
O out of terror and dark, to come
In sight of home.
~Walter de la Mare.

When you’re a busy woman and you step outside at the end of the day to let the dog out and see glory.

 

The sky was high and clear with a brilliant moon.  But what made it special was a layer of clouds passing between it and earth.  All the light from the moon lit up the clouds.

“my soul is elsewhere, I’m sure of that.
and I intend to end up there.”  RUMI

the stars were twinkling

God’s glory is on tour in the skies,
God-craft on exhibit across the horizon.
Madame Day holds classes every morning,
Professor Night lectures each evening.
Their words aren’t heard,
their voices aren’t recorded,
But their silence fills the earth:
unspoken truth is spoken everywhere.

Psalm 19

The further the clouds got from the moon the darker they became so that I couldn’t make them out very well anymore.
