Silent as the snowy mantle, falling through darkness
Unlooked for, to greet a pristine dawn;
Warm as the summer sun that sails the sky
In splendour, giving life and Light;
Wild as the storm wind sweeping the hilltop
Powerful, charged and renewing;
Soft as an angels kiss, bringing its blessings,
Ineffable, held in God’s hand;
Burning with fire, the passion of lovers,
Whitest flame, hearts incandescing;
Gentle as spring rain, life-giving softness
Like jewels, trembling on the web;
As vast as the ocean, deeper than the abyss
Ever changing, yet constant in faith;
Beloved as Earth, home for a lifetime,
Dwelling within, sheltering our lives;
All I imagine, my deepest of dreams
The soul’s quest, I have found in you.
