"In Other News"


Things have got so demented, and evil. I think those of us that are still on line should chill with all the #45 madness. He is vile insane etc., we all know this.Also his people are evil, and great damage is being done to our country. We know this too.

That said I'm posting a couple of deliberately sweet things I wrote many years back. The "Beulah" window story is from a years old  unfinished children's book. The next item is just some noise I cranked out 12 years or more ago.

"Beulah's Window"

The window was a symphony of dreams. it was composed of shards. Cast off bits of stained glass which Beulah assembled into magic.
As the afternoon sun played across it.

Here was illuminated a hand. Fragments of clouds. Here a lily.
There a smile,...and there a yellow crescent moon.

Throughout were floating embers of deep blues bright reds shades of green fogs of gold. In it's upper portions were bits of alabaster doves, and a spray of stars in rose purple twilight.

Such was Beulah's window.

"Steps"

I was thinking what would it be like to fall into the sky. You're just living your life going to this place, and that. All the while above you is the sea of Eternity.

Sometimes I look up.

There above the trees above the towers beyond the clouds. The sky blue or gold red or orange. Then the night. The deep black night. Forever, and forever tomorrow, and tomorrow.

One foot in front of the other. One step then another.

Then falling.

Falling into Heaven.
