Autumn Cathedral

Earth’s stained-glass window – God’s grace-filled heart reflected into souls of men. * Prayers like incense rise from ruby lips, beryl throats – Autumn Cathedral. * My friend Caddo Veil and I hatched a plot and collaborated on this one – they always say 2 heads are better than 1!   She penned the opening…

Earth’s stained-glass window –

God’s grace-filled heart reflected

into souls of men.

Prayers like incense rise
from ruby lips, beryl throats –
Autumn Cathedral.

My friend Caddo Veil and I hatched a plot and collaborated on this one – they always say 2 heads are better than 1!   She penned the opening haiku, and I tacked on the last.  What fun!  You can read more of her lovely work here.

      Thank you Betty! Part of the fun of blogging is ‘meeting’ the right people – there is so much to inspire and encourage creativity out there in cyber-space! Nice to ‘meet’ you! 🙂

      Thank you for the gorgeous prompt! Went to a park today and saw much to delight and tantalize the poetic senses – hopefully some of the pics I took with an inferior camera will produce enough offspring to keep me going for a few more camera-less days…

        This is really strange because it bounced it back as if it wouldn’t post this comment…. That’s why I posted another one.

        Strange things are afoot… 🙂

    Hope this works… They still don’t have me that I’m following you but they are still sending me your blogs… Somethings really in a snafu.

    I love this post of yours… It captures how crisp all our perceptions are this year.

      If this is Merrill, they have you with a blank gravatar posting as ‘Someone’ – strange! 🙂

        And when I left the other comment above under the snowbirdpress comment, they sent me to another page with the words “invalid key”!!!!

      2. melodylowes

        ???? Wow – sounds like some sort of spy or cloak and dagger stuff! 🙂

      3. snowbirdpress

        Yes, It’s me, Merril… As you can see I’m in the midst of a very strange snafu in WordPress to be sure. Thanks for your patience with me so I could see how really strange this thing has gotten! I do love your post tonight…. I love prayer/poems.

        Ah, well – the more, the merrier, right? 🙂
