Let them praise God’s name with dancing; Let them sing praises to God with timbrel and lyre.  –Psalm 149:3

I dance across the water

pirouetting

to the music of creation.

Minnows splash

frogs croak

blue herons beat time with tambourine wings

Lizards rustle

crabs scuttle

snakes slither

and sanderlings bob back and forth

a ballad of life in the bayou.

Ruah, breath of life,

singer of creations song

help us keep dancing for life as death bubbles toward us.

God of the dance, may we ever seek to hear the music of creation and create a world where the symphony of life in never silent. Amen

–Fran Bogle
