The beauty of nature often moves our spirits
beyond words
into the realm of prayer,
and meditation
even into the quiet
beyond
what we can see.

The Quiet Still Held by Winter
With our spirits gently drifting within and through
the snowfall,
our words will give shape
to our meditation,
even a poem worthy
of silent reflection,
in the quiet
still held by winter.

Within the Peace of the Falling Snow
The hand of God painting, with a brush filled with snow,
drawing us closer to our healing
within the peace,
within the quiet held by trees
Listen,
what do you hear?

Breathe in All the Goodness
Take a walk in the wilderness, and set your mind free
from the chains of this world.
Breathe in all the goodness
made for you and I.

The Quiet Moments of Winter II
As she looked out the window half asleep, she understood why
he was getting dressed, and out the door so early
he was called with his camera
to capture the silence,
where the spirit is at rest
and the mind is in awe,
of the moment
and where God walks unseen
through the pine trees.

Our Prayers Ascending
As a seagull glides through the frozen air,
and ice crystals sparkle on top of the snow,
we can sense our prayers ascending
released,
from the quiet
in our hearts.

In the Stillness of Our Spirits
There is a place hiding, tucked away within,
of listening
quietly to what we have known
as if a sun reflecting
on a mountain stream
could speak to us.
And yet
there are no words
in the stillness
of our spirits.
