NEW ILLUSTRATION: 'The tread of our aching heart's blind dreaming is never forgotten; imprinted our footsteps upon the sands of time's glad use of us . . .










            The Tread of Our Aching Heart

The tread of our aching heart’s blind dreaming
Is never forgotten
Imprinted our footprints upon the sands
Of time’s glad use of us

His crystal glimpses---will softly tell
And forever---of all the stories hid
Within the places we have passed through
And are yet passing through---
Their bright footsteps are never lost
Indelible the mark we leave behind us
Upon time’s shoulder:
Our story perfectly told

The whispered secret-gold within them
Is---heard and seen---our being infinitely loved
In love’s own deep working in us
Pressed---infused---and forever held in his keeping

We are not unloved in any of our secret thoughts
Neither do we go unseen in any place
Where we have trodden down the grapes of wrath---
Our footsteps---a pattern of light in time---were kept

And when time closes his book we are whole:
Our story seen a perfect gift of unmerited love
