Bright Morning Star

Minutes of 2020 coalescing into the star we allow.

Bright Morning Star

 

Southern bearing breezes carried from above

Cerulean blue habitation, interpreted as love.

Depths of glory’s presence, nature so dear

You’re Sprit, inner writer; message is clear.

I am a receiving tower, Tuning on cue.

 

Layers of inner color coalesce, hue on hue.

Divine inner ear, still the signal point.

Special occasion of peace presence my heart anoint.

These eyes living lens, unfathomable splendors rare.

Attend your message. I your servant, willingly bow my ear.

Mystery pulls humble strata great odes composition played long.

Sheer meaning, unwritten by human hands: the song.

I know you are the true, just and Holy One.

-Bright Morning Star.

Author's Note

Star of Bethlehem came for a visit after 800 years. Covid year came to visit too. Did we rest from everything this world had been burdening us with?

[Chris Shaw]

The past year has been tremendously challenging. If the star of Bethlehem visited again after 800 years, it does make one wonder. Some would take that as a sign, others a coincidence. Whatever way your thinking goes, or where your faith lies, this is a beautifully visual poem which makes the reader think. Keep safe and well Kathy.

Christine Anne Shaw,
Does God keep giving us opportunities to learn. Even do overs? As people we often want to keep learning, to become better and not repeat mistakes. The universe shows itself in falling stars and many other cyclical visits of planets etc in the heavens. Earth is sighing with it's own cycles and weight. I do believe that there more to learn and that there is a Holy God which loves us people more than we comprehend.
Bless you today and hope your enjoying some of the splendors of spring.

Fran Marie,
I do wonder at the wonder of current happenings in our world and wonder that we may be missing the signs of the times and the signs in the heavens above. I believe that as a child of God, that is having given my poor life to the Lord Jesus Christ His ways are far above my own. Creation does sing God's praises.

May your star be always bright and cheerful. As humans, we take special events to mean special things. In my faith, we do the same. Glad you are in tune with God and His wondrous creations and that we all marvel at His Handiwork. A gorgeous spiritual poem with many hope-filled values...

[Kathy Van Kurin]

Sami Khalil,
Hmm. I sure don't know everything but the creator of all things surly does. My trust rests in the Holy, just and pure ways of the God of the universe. Thanks for your review too. Hope your having a good week.

Zaynab,
This one was a joy to write. It's nice to be able to share these special occasions of our personal lives in words with others. You just never know what another is going through or what they will feel and take from a reading. I enjoyed your recent (Kaleidoscope) poem too.
Thank you for taking time to read here and your thoughts.
Blessings as always,
Kathy

Hi MCS,
Well The bethlehem star created quite a stir didn't it. I wondered at its wonder! I am always enjoying the beauty of God's heavens. Love hearing from you. Hope you are well too. Blessings to you. Kathy

[TL Boehm]

This is lovely. A prayer - there is always the hope that will effervesce if allowed

[Kathy Van Kurin]

TL Boehm,
Yes, here we are and what does the difficulties of this world and life during this past bring out? Hope is always needed as you say above. Yes we all need more of that. Stay well. Stay hopeful and bless you again and always.

I suppose we should look upon this year as a real test of faith. Developing countries have grind to a halt, our lives have been put on hold, deaths from COVID-19 going from bad to worse. Maybe this is the wakeup call we all needed. As the star of Bethlehem leaves, the Covid vaccine begins to get rolled out. Is that a sign or what. HAPPY2021, Kathy, stay safe.

[Kathy Van Kurin]

Paul Bell,
Sometimes it is overwhelming to consider our own inner ponderings in this last year. Your list above is a good starting point. Starting over is what this life is feeling like. I so appreciate your input. My little heart is sometimes overwhelmed but comparing notes with others sure is nice. Thank you so much and bless you too.
