poem and photo by Martha Mazza
Oh, Shine Your Light on me! Reach to the deepest Parts of my soul, The inner sanctum.
Bring to light
What is hidden
In its pleated crevices,
Allow Your love
To dwell
In those spaces,
Cultivating my soul
To understand
The depths
Of Your adoring love,
Not through my mind,
But by my soul knowing,
Knowing the rise and fall
Of Your breath,
Knowing the rhythm
Of Your heartbeat,
Knowing the timbre
Of Your whisper,
I need Your Light
To rescue me
In the delicacies
Of day to day
Living,
Your design
For my life,
The perfect
Petal & bloom
Of Creation,
As the struggles Of sanctification Develop deep Impressions, Molding my soul Joyfully To You, All for the display Of Your glory
