“Sweet Roar” ~a Poem by Linda Willows
Lift off this frame that designs me so
My heart cannot still, it must learn to let go
Allowance may pour through the fount of Love’s door
Yet the fray of dark days sets new fires in my way
Pull through the flames those no less than Your Light
I could only know Love if it springs from dark night.
Lift my heart’s name that resigns me so
I cannot let Will be alone in such tow.
Come mark my door with the sacred Love’s pour
Beauty the wonder souls love, caress and birth then asunder.
Live out, hear the joy of Life humble lore, Its’ sweet roar.
I bless every tear, every love, every year.
God take the frame, for the soul, it is Near.

Knowing we exist through the work of some great hand (to use a word that poorly describes the wonder of creation) is a rare gift, a moment that many would rather avoid, than to think that what we do has meaning and affects all of creation ….

If I understand you, you are describing a question as to the existence as the difference between Faith and a Response to Faith which propels one to examine their life, find great meaning in existence through the wonder of God as Love through all of the Expressions and Manifestations of our Being, that we, can become a Living Faith. Not a foreign member which looks to a star unknown, rather one, Familiar with and In the Light that stands to rise and fall with its Coming and Becoming. ~Heart, Linda

my dear Robyn, In order to truly “see” and re-Cognize something, as you do in the way you observe Life and the Reflections of God, you must first Be it- The Eye of perception would Have such purity of view and lack of personal filters… You, as you say, truly are “A Healing Lens”, for you see with the clarity of “Being”. Love ever, Linda

I had to rewrite your reply Robyn!

yes my dearest ..i know well and miss that feel of writing poems…now at last 4 years iam focus in photography and temporary i ”Lost”" my poetics skills….but i found you from so far but so close )))to complete in a perfect excellent frame my photos as i was dream to be
..so i bless for that and for so many others and for every my breath the ONE source that we call God
…your poem is writen by a soul who knows ( as is the leader for other souls ) the way out from darkness to the light…my name Persefoni from Greek mythology means in internal way excactly that…Persefoni lives 6 months down in earth in darkness and 6 months up …Persefoni is my life…is the life of humanity
Hugs and kisses

My goodness, what a page – what images, and what poetry.
I am sick from work today (off sick) as I’m suffering stress and anxiety. Little butterflies, drained energy, trembling – just life. But what I’m actually wanting to say is how grounding, how beautiful, how wonderful these pages are. Love the imagery and poetry. Really, cheers to you. I enjoyed my time here.
N’n.

I am so glad that you felt some joy during your time here, that I through the spirit and word may touch your life. you send me cheer me, I cannot smile brighter without needing you to know that I understand the deep burden that the feeling which you have described must cast upon your Heart and press into the free breath of your aching spirit. Your Soul, so Tall and Wise in its Expression and Identity, lifts, and anxiety, the great deceiver lifts to reveal true meaning. You, The You of Deep Heart within breathes deeply, with joy and finally with Peace. This is my smile for you, Love, Linda

And I’m in love with that picture! Always stunned by your taste in photography…..

“God take the frame, for the soul, it is Near.” Wow. Complete surrender to All … an acceptance, an embracing of all that makes us; and yet we are only frames to create the portrait. It is what lies deep within the heart and soul that is the true picture. This moved me deeply, and touched my core. Beautiful, my dear friend, I love this so much. ~ Love and gentle hugs, Julie xoxox

It is wonderful to reach out, to feell, to embrace, and taste of so great a love that finds forever life within us. Sometimes i feel have i done enough to describe this prized treasure of mine who delights my spirit each day…but in your words my heart delights for you show the path to it for all with eyes to see. Remarkable poem Linda, and so beautiful to awaken to! Thanks for always sharing your self-less heart!
