Like a tear in the sky
that lets heaven come shining through
I opened up today
and nothing could hide the flame I felt.
Deep joy burning my heart down.
I went for a run, music in my ears,
God's creation in my eyes
and a deep feeling filling me
that I was tapped into something deeper
than the everyday shows.
Sometimes, like a lens, I just come focused.
Like a crystal, when the light comes on through,
I am for a moment showered with grace and clarity.
Full of the conjunction of my will
and my life and God's purpose.
As if all the warm hands of love and meaning
have come at once to press me
and I to feel through them
the fabric of life.
