Coming Home


 

 

I watch the sun as it rises upon you

Such beauty painted by God’s hand

Your blue sky alive with the silent voices of the ages

 

From your holy mountains to your spiritual mesas

Surely God has kissed your land

 

The sweetness of your air; the breath of the Great Spirit

Your flowers and waterfalls; the secret gifts within the desert

The richness of your deep red earth; portrait images against the horizon

 

The music of the pan flute floats softly amid the sunbeams

As my spirit folds into you and I find peace within your embrace

 

Your essence occupies my being, my dreams

Called to you as if this were a holy place

Or a land I once traveled a lifetime ago

 

A rare, natural beauty; you must be God’s poetry

New Mexico, my home

Magnificient poetry, Sherry! Just goes to show that we don't have to go far to discover the beauty in this world. It is a beautiful planet, and one should look around and appreciate God's wondrous creations! Thanks for sharing your admiration of your homeland and reminding us that the world has many incredible sights!

Blessed are those that can see and feel the beauty of their surroundings and sing it with the voice of the soul.

"Coming Home" says it in full with art and wonders.

I salute You, Sublime Artist of the VERB!

Oh Sherry, that is gorgeous. That's the way I feel about my home in Indiana...which I write about often. (although I live in Florida) No place makes me feel more centered and alive than Indiana...especially when have the opportunity to get 'lost' in the country. To see the same sentiment expressed here was a much needed lift to my heart. I'm so homesick! Blessings, Michelle

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
