Sunrise in Paradise

Courtesy of Philip Chircop, SJ.Clouds blush
in lush yellows, golds and oranges.
The dark ones, still thick and heavy with night,
await awakening, exposure, enlightening …
as the sun rises boldly
quickly kissing all colours into blueness,
greening the foliage below.

 

Philip Chircop, SJ, is based in Toronto and works in both the retreat and parish ministries.

    Philip. Your words are so beautiful like paint on an empty canvas. Full of light, depth,and so much meaning that they open our eyes and heart to the beauty of our world. I thank you so very much for the gifts you have and share with us. You have always encouraged me to be more than I ever thought I could be. Keep smiling, your friend always Lorraine.
