Far above

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)

Rhymed
Are you weaving eternity
For us to walk upon
And stepping through time beside me
Listening to Shakespeare's play
Or laughing ever so deeply along the way
Are you holding the sword of St Michael
As he lays it by your feet
And tells you not to worry
To play like you're purpose is complete
Are you the light that fills the clouds around us
That we quickly glance aside
Trying to see beyond
Are you sharpening our longing minds
Do you pray for stillness in the cosmic waves
As our paths grow in turmoil
Oh how your love is paved
