Comments and suggestions welcome and appreciated. Thanks.

Renewal

water and wind
elemental promises
born of God
spirit-wise
acting to humanize

beyond our ken
to shift and altar us
grounding fallenness
raising our reach
as we beseech

though half-aware
we know we are led
to seek the sky
while here below
longing for the reign-bow

Our appreciation and wonder at all of nature help us to realize that we are being led to a consciousness of a higher power.Thank you for sharing this beautiful and wonderfully inspiring poem.

Yes your words are deliberate and perhaps sometimes that elusive rainbow just seems to be where Judy Garland said: somewhere over the rainbow way up high......nice read and it talks to you and lets you talk back to it.............

A powerful content indeed. You speak through wisdom of ages that is well conveyed throughout the entire poem. Great job!

So glad you liked it; I wasn't sure anyone would get this one, it is kind of obscure. Thanks!

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
