a propos the last CREDO...............

---------------------------------------

Joy

Dear Lord,

thank you for a surprising mind

for I am jubilant with thoughts

enraptured by images

emparadised by song

I close my eyes

and thoughts scud over

like the deep fresh winds of spring

that sing

shaking colors in the soul

Reason tries to tread soberly

dressed in cypress

but joys are jonquils

shy secrets are violets

hiding under ferns for fun

the sun explodes!

I close my ears

deafened by tongues of love

singing, heaven knows what, above

anthems celebrating some great thing

bells ring in tumbling carillons of gold

I close my lips

words come crowding down like children

in blue and white ribbons

skipping three steps at a time

wanting out to shout and thunder

and, in my hand, held tight

and burning bright

the Godstone: wonder!

a.o.howell
