Dialogue


Light pierces darkness;
water kisses dry land;
grasses and vines
lift up their heads,
sing their beauty,
as seeds and as fruit.

Light speaks in darkness,
wine moistens parched lips,
bread responds to hunger,
lifting the soul, as
an open vessel,
into silent conversation.

See the light,
feel the water,
taste the earth,
sing the song
and know that it is
God, speaking with you.
