Shining Out From Within


Shining Out From Within

Morning Glories,
bright jewels of sunrise,
delight in reaching, reaching for the Light.

Climbing higher,
desiring, following, seeking it;
escaping from the night.

Catching the rays, soaking them up;
filled to overflowing.

Stars shining out from within;
basking, illuminating, glowing.

Round and round in a spin.

Sharing the peace, trumpeting the joy,
shining the Light of the All-knowing.

  4. So many layers of meaning in your poem, and I love the deep blue glories with almost flourescent pink-purple middles. They are appropriately glorious.

  5. Wow! I didn't realize morning glories came in so many colors. All we ever had were the blue ones... and I loved them. Yours are so much more beautiful, though,and your poem is just as beautiful. (Keep it up, and we're gonna have to think about an "Old Broads" Volume TWO!)

  11. Hi There, Hope you had a great Labor Day Weekend. We did --but didn't do much since it has gotten so hot here. We did grill a couple of delicious steaks and had baked potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers, pickles and cranberry relish for dinner... YUM...

    When I think of Morning Glories, I think of YOU. You are the Queen of Morning Glories for sure. SO many colors --and they all look so happy.... Love them --and your poem.

    Hugs,
    Betsy

  13. What beautiful Morning Glories ! Are they a special selection of seed ? They don't look like the "weed" variety we have around here, the kind of Morning Glories people will curse at you for if they see you've some growing in your property. ( They're very invasive and some people in these parts have been at war with morning Glories for decades. )

    Your poem reminds me how God's creation seems to reflect back on its' Creator, in all its' and His glory.

  17. Thank you, all. Morning Glories are one of my favorites. I'm glad you all enjoyed my poem and photos.

    Mildred, I'm glad you have enjoyed them. I have felt so blessed with all the flowers that have appeared in my yard this summer. The previous owners here left so many treasures behind.

    Susan, you never know! Sounds like fun. :)

    Margie, thank you! Wow, Scotland! I hope you have a wonderful time.

    Betsy, you make me smile. When I think of roses, I think of you! :)

    Kathy, the big light blue ones are called Heavenly Blue and the big blue and white ones are called Flying Saucers. The others are just mixed colors of morning glory seeds that I bought at Lowe's.

    Julia and Liza, hello and thank you for visiting here. Liza, thank you for following my blog too!

    Wishing you all a wonderful day!
