Stair by Stair

Jan. 15, 2011

Why not come and dine with me tonight

In silence by a single candlelight

And look into a future clear and bright

Filled with promise and a strange delight.

Why not come and walk with me this day

And catch the early morning's brightening ray

Nothing need we do and nothing say

But watch the wind blow the past away.

Why not join me in my hour of prayer

Inhale the freshness of the changing air,

See beauty born and earth in heaven's care,

To divinity ascend stair by stair.
