On March 12, 2012, I wrote out my personal mission statement for that year. I still hold it to be true: "I will express my willingness to grow spiritual and poetic sides by learning about and changing that which I can, by being connected to that which is around me, and by putting pen to paper and relating my personal experiences." I continue to grow spiritually and poetically. Thus, I will share a recent discovery.
I'm participating in an eRetreat, and was asked to draw, paint, write in your journal or create something about, write music to, or meditate upon the question, "What does the Divine Light illuminate in my life?" This poem came forth:
Today I Saw God
By: Annette McFarlane
I saw the
Light of God
In the sunshine
From my window.
Love of God
In the smile
Of a young child.
Joy of God
In the laughter
Of a couple
In the coffee shop.
Warmth of God
In the exchange
Of a friend’s
embrace.
I saw
God.
