When the day is perfect,
even when it’s not
and redemption is easy because
we rejoice in the ordinary,
when even elation falls short
of the truth before us
and extraordinary is
in the cracks we pass over,
the language of angels
could not speak this ecstasy,
silence is the better part
as the heart delights.

Magical words and image, Paul. The light is so beautiful. And I like the contrasting
feel of the desert like rocks and the green trees. I could spend time there!
