‘Silver’ 

The light of human kindness
Water and a way with words
The light of creatureliness
The lilies and birds 

The light of your father’s land
The light of restoration
Light to read and understand
Twilight for transformation

Look! Here is your love!
Here is your passion!

Light of superabundance
The light of purpose binding
Light of utter dependence
Calling, responding

The light of Ireneaus
Seven seas and epistles
Light of Athanasius
Among the thistles

Look! Here is your love!
Your meditation!

Light as alpine moss
Snakeskin silver-slow
The beat of the lines that cross
The light of the radio

Spectacular red and green
The lights of time and trauma
Light to take in the whole scene
Vibration, drama

Look! Here is your love!
Love of creation!
