Celebration
In this season
of aching holiness,
let us pause to revel
in all we have been given.
Not the things we possess,
I don't mean that-
but the immense wonders
of this universe we inhabit
and our intuitive bond
with God.
We are so rich!
Rich in natural splendors,
rich in a sea of human hearts,
rich in adventures
more amazing than fairy tales,
rich in challenges--
the soil out of which we grow,
rich in deep stark mysteries to solve,
rich in the music of laughter,
rich in starlight--the food of hope,
rich in hidden angels
to whisper in our ear,
rich in our endless chances
to extend the arm of compassion,
rich in the Peace of Inner Silence,
and above all,
rich in Divine Love
which blankets us all day and night
like a quiet mist that never dries.
Whoever we are,
we are born to riches,
for we are offspring of the One.
Merry Christmas,
holy child of God.
