karenina



karenina,
of the undying
lightness
of a kind empath.
Poetry whispered-
into God's courts
where tall angels
supreme speak
of the Holiness
and love of our
Lion of Judah.

The living and
departed poet's
passion for Him,
and humankind.
karenina,
in Luna's consoling
presence,
encourager,
steps lithe amidst
the stars.
karenina, of the
infinite,
reaches into
humanity's heart
with never-ending
song poetry of
the doves in
heaven-bound
flights on their
wings,
messages from
prayers. ~
