I’m on the fall retreat of my ministers’ chapter, at the gorgeous Villa Maria del Mar, Santa Cruz. For me, an absolute must for our retreats is art time, and several of us enjoyed a collage session yesterday. I loved just letting images that spoke to me come together, pushing away my analytic mind. This is 5×8″.

My period had come for Prayer—
No other Art—would do—
My Tactics missed a rudiment—
Creator—Was it you?
God grows above—so those who pray
Horizons—must ascend—
And so I stepped upon the North
To see this Curious Friend—
His House was not—no sign had He—
By Chimney—nor by Door
Could I infer his Residence—
Vast Prairies of Air
Unbroken by a Settler—
Were all that I could see—
Infinitude—Had’st Thou no Face
That I might look on Thee?
The Silence condescended—
Creation stopped—for Me—
But awed beyond my errand—
I worshipped—did not “pray”—
