A Beautiful Prayer by John O'Donohue (Lisa)

I watched this remembrance of John O’Donohue and was struck day and night by the words and imagery reminding us of the gift of a living, breathing universe that our Great God blessed us with. He created all of it and is in it all or rather IS it all. Made me feel so much less lonely. Cut and paste this blue link into your google search box and hit enter.

A Living Breathing Universe

I stepped outside last night

In the dark and cold

And looked up at the beautiful night

The moon was so bright

It lit the sky a deep ink blue

The trees a black silhouette

Set against it

Swaying as one in the wind

The smell of a coming snow in the air

All was quiet

Save the wind high in the trees

and your bells dancing

I stood there for the longest time

In my nightgown

Filled with a sense of wonder and love

And the cold did not touch me.

I miss you Claire

But I know you are here

In this living breathing universe.
