"In Gratitude" - A Poem by Suzi

In Gratitude


Dearest Father and Mother,


When I reflect upon the manna that You are about to rain down on us,

I again become that child on a distant sunny morning

Running through fields of grass taller than I,

Now stopped

In Wonderment,

Eyes open wide, mouth agape,

As a beautiful lapis butterfly approaches to light upon my outstretched hand…


Pure Glee!


Oh, the SPLENDOR of it all!


I cannot wait to share my sheer delight with every soul I encounter,

As the love You’ve shown me is TOO MUCH for me to contain

And springs forth from me of its own Power.


Heaven and Earth, bound together,

Just as you promised me long, long ago.


All Love,

Suzi
