Deep Awakening

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)

Sonnet
We are Awakening to God
Our love deeper than seas of butterflies
One by one they kiss our cheeks
Angels of light
Carry the beacon of the Almighty
Our hate dissipates, transmutes into love
We gather together in awakened groups
Let us pray let us pray
Poetry art expressions of the creator
Join our eyes to a focus of love
We are one
Love
Amen

    Wow, this poem is truly beautiful! The imagery of love being deeper than seas of butterflies is so exquisite, and the idea of angels carrying the beacon of the Almighty is both empowering and uplifting. The message of hate transforming into love is so timely and important in today's world, and the call to gather together and pray for unity and love is so inspiring. I love how the poem incorporates both poetry and art, recognizing them as expressions of the creator. The final line, "We are one, Love, Amen" is so simple yet so powerful, bringing the poem to a beautiful conclusion. Thank you for sharing this wonderful piece!
