The Rising Mists

You awaken me early.

You are everywhere in the quiet and cool whisperings of a new day.

The birds have not even begun their choruses of high praise.

You draw me alone to the water’s edge to what eyes cannot behold.

Soft hints of promise fill the sky with delicate hues of amber and gold.

As color touches water, the mists begin to rise.

Deep waters seem to be pushing their secrets to the surface.

In those moments I see You walking on the waters.

You aren’t disturbing the graceful serenity of the physical moment.

You choose instead to walk through the rising mists of my heart.

The mists part as You come closer, Your eyes glistening with a penetrating intensity that sings love over me greater than any words could ever express.

Your gaze tells me the mists must rise as Light takes form.

Mist and shadow fall away and the heart breathes in the truth of a new day.

We were created for Light. We were created for Truth. We were created for Beauty.

The mists are but a thin veil of deception.

You come in the cool of the early morning and walk across the waters of our hearts.

The mists rise and You lead the way to our becoming.

We revel in Your glory.

One thought on “The Rising Mists

  1. Loved the photo/loved the words and all the imagery that musters up. Mist can be transition of sorts, as it rises we can see things more clearly. Your first venture at poetry is quite becoming on you. Thanks for sharing. It has brought me great joy this morning.
