words from the edge
words from the edge
of the mayan empire
stone earth rose dust—
angels love this placeclouds in the desert
monarch in the mud
a sweet scent rising
pleasing to God.
Reflections
Reflections of a grandmother in a field of lilies, where often the stillness is hardest to mind, silence is most present in the breaking, stillness found within the sound.When Elijah heard it, he wrapped his face in his mantle and went out and stood in the entrance of the cave. And behold, a voice came to him and said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?" — 1 Kings 19:13
