The Bright Sun Blessing
How bright the sun
Warming your face!
How wise the star
Marking your path!
How full the moon
Guarding your rest!
How clear the spring
Filling your well!
How fertile the soil
Yielding your seed!
How soft the breeze
Cooling your brow!
How eternal the flame
Heating your hearth!
How sweet the love
Imbuing your home!
How kind the hand
Holding your own!
-Paul Whiting
(a.k.a., Three Dark Horses)
"I am the darkness which brings the light!"
My Spiritual Notes:
The reason that I wrote this poem can be summed up with the following statement: I used to give poems as gifts for holidays and special occasions!
And I wrote this poem in as an any-occasion gift poem for anytime that I needed a heart-warming message, like a greeting card, but one general enough to be used for any special occasion.
And this poem was also published on my "Small All White in the Forest" and "Paul Whiting — A Creative Writer" blogs (please see the hyperlinks below for the blogs), since I feel that the message in this poem applies to the message that I am trying to convey through "Small All White in the Forest" and "Paul Whiting — A Creative Writer."
This poem was written in Salt Lake City, Utah.
