Echoes of the Divine


I am not, strictly speaking, a boater, 
 (Though I must confess:
 I was married in a canoe)
 But I have always been drawn to the edges 
Where boats and water meet; 
To the wavering reflections, gentle curves, 
And the rich simplicity and depth 
Of favorite colors: shades of blue, 
Made more vibrant by light and shadow 
And the golden glow of wood. 
In those colors, I seem to feel an echo 
 Of the richness and the depth 
At the center of my heart; 
That divine spark seeded there that ignites 
 Joy, love, and creativity.
