(for Amy M-K)
I wake into giving thoughts,
day already blooming for me
(if I am ready to receive
it without hesitation)
I rise into givens, catching
as much as possible with mitts
(protecting my hands, hands shielding
my heart, eyes closed, peeking)
I will, I promise daily, learn
to receive Light bare handed
(and uncover my heart, and
worship with eyes open)

learn to recieve light barehanded...how cool is that.....eyes open, just as we make love...so we are honoring the one we are with and not the one we are dreaming of...smiles.
Oh Susan--I loved this on so many levels--well crafted--and I loved the last stanza especially---
to receive Light bare handed
such a challenge and such a gift
What a beautiful message, to receive light bare handed ~ Love it Susan ~

I do like the idea of receiving light bare handed and worshipping with eyes wide open! Bravo.
So true as life and mitts do not mix...as light and life for unfiltered will..if You WILL...
I LOVE this!!!!!!! wowzers!
Love the imagery of bare hands and those gloves :-) wonderful Susan
Really beautiful message, deep but bathed in light. It is lovely Susan.
...it feels good to read this Susan... it feels good to receive a poem that is not heavy on the inside... i will consider this a genuine treat from you... thanks... smiles...
This is gorgeous, Susan... and so powerful. I love how the pace quickens.
Loved the last couple of lines. learn baring the hand and the heart. A wonderful message here and also how often we tend to be closed!
a wonderful promise..
Excellent imagery here, Susan.
Beautiful! Receiving the day and what comes with it, that is a testament to faith. To receive it without hesitation. Something I try to do everyday, but it isn't always easy. Regards.
WOW! 'Worshiping with eyes'....sounds delightful, Susan.Lovely...
I tend to think light energy needs a bare head to receive it, rather than bare hands? I reckon it beams straight down our centre line...
Learn to receive light - what a powerful thought Susan. Thanks for this.
I am grateful every day for the light - it was the topic today at the church where my granddaughter got baptized. I began to think about the inherent metaphors we humans have given to day/ night - dark/light and how it frames our thoughts, ideas and actions, even our faith. Well said.
Great comment! Thank you, Brian.
Thank you, Audrey.

I WIll,and where there is a will ...
Ah, Sherry, this one means a lot to me.
Thank you Bjorn. Seems there is some recognition of this resolve.
Thank you, Alana.
Thank you Kelvin. Depth without heaviness makes this weighty indeed.
Thanks, Laurie. That was a major discovery, how it works here.
Too often, Thank you for visiting, Akila.
Awareness is a beginning. Thank you for this fine comment.
Nice! Thank you! I like the idea that centering is part of receiving. For some faiths, many prayers a day with a covered head to honor God.
Especially our faith. Thank you, Beachanny, for this sharing.
