Speak Kindly

a Sunday supplication

Speak, Great Love,
Who lights the sky
and colors the flowers. 
Speak kindly in these
dark, dull hours. 

Great Love, sing!
Hope and Healing,
Melodic Medicine,
Music of the Spheres! 

Earth, our Mother,
from Your Depths, 
be Harmony. 
And we, who long
for peace, the chorus. 

Great Love, be with us,
be in us, be for us!
That we may turn 
the troubled tides,
and sing our thanks
from safer, softer shores. 

Slate rock from Lake Erie; painted by my sweet Jon-Kyle, once upon a time.

Sending out my heart and my voice for those too discouraged, weary, or fearful to cry out. May Kindly Beings everywhere join the chorus and light the way Home to Our Better Selves. 
Deepest Peace and Courage to All,
~Cheryl Anne
