In the Beginning....

In the beginning…

there was chaos

dark turbulent waters

soundless wind

stirring, moving

seemingly with no purpose

or direction

In the beginning…

there was uncertainty

stirring of dark waters

deep within

bleeding

wondering

love made consummate

but this time

was different

In the beginning..

there was loneliness

fears

responsibility

eyes trusting me

to know what I was doing

and love so deep

so profound

so earth-shaking

I could barely hold my ground

In the beginning

darkness

light

turbulence

terror

storms

unknown

fears of death

catastrophe

that would shatter me

beyond repair

In the beginning

there was music

dancing

silliness

absurdity

newness

tangible sweetness

pain in the glory

the Sound of Good News

a little baby’s cry

and all of our lives

began

together.
