The Rose in Blessing

 


Flowering, immaculate

grows the winter rose

inside of you


Your soul, in wonderment,

expresses its form


But hush..

wait just awhile

for the soft breath of the merciful divine

is flowing within you


And a light will be lit that never dims

by day it illuminates your acts

by night, your dreams

Feel how the divine love enfolds you


Rest now secure in her arms

while your angel spreads her wings

above the Rose in Blessing

  1. "By day it illuminates your acts / by night, your dreams". So movingly expressed, and offering hope through the dark hours of winter. But more than this, these lines offer endurance: the endurance to withstand these winter times which come to our own lives, and the peace of heart that flows from such loving reassurance. Thank you, Emma.
