When I woke up this morning, the bright light shining through the windows caused me to squint and had me baffled for a spell, but then I remembered the light came from the sun. It's been so long since we've seen sunlight (and shadows, those dark things) that I'd forgotten. Good to see you again, Brother Sun.
Praised be You my Lord with all Your creatures,UPDATE:
especially Sir Brother Sun,
Who is the day through whom You give us light.
And he is beautiful and radiant with great splendour,
Of You Most High, he bears the likeness.
(From Canticle of Brother Sun and Sister Moon - St Francis of Assisi)
We praise You, Lord, for Sister Moon and the stars,Tonight was the first night I've seen the moon and stars for quite a while.
in the heavens you have made them bright, precious and fair.
Can you send some sun to the mid-Atlantic states? It peaked through briefly today around noon and then promptly disappeared again. It feels as if we've been living in a cave. Very depressing!
ReplyDeleteI don't know whiteycat. I'm quite jealous of Brother Sun's presence right now. If I could be sure he'd come back, I'd send him for a while. :-)
