Like fingers reaching
for the hem of heaven,
they stretch
Trying as they might,
it's just beyond their grasp
Yet high above me
where their upper canopy
flutters in the wind
And the clouds reach down
to drop by and say, hello
i catch a glimpse of heaven
- the smallest piece, just a slice,
a fragment if you will - that lives
within each of us ..... just like a tree is a part of the forest,
a wildflower a part of the meadow, and
the clouds a thread in the tapestry of the sky ...
And wherever two or three are gathered in
the Spirit of the Creator, there among the faithful,
it is on Earth as it is in Heaven for a brief moment
This is the Faith, the Hope and the Love
that the Creator shares with us
Because He loves us so ... 💓
