The Gathering

A hush falls with an iridescent mist

Soft yellow light can be seen in the distance

Mesmerized I stand

A hum of anticipation rolls over me

Hum turns to a thrum in my veins – hot and tingly

I close my eyes, taking in an intoxicating scent, perhaps vanilla mixed with rain

I allow all my senses to soak this in

I feel a soft beat in the soles of my feet

Thump……..Thump…….. Thump……..

The beat is in perfect time with the breathless anticipation I feel

Opening my eyes I take in a growing crowd

All of creation is gathering…

A bear brushes by me and I somehow understand him to say hello

Excitement rolls off of every person or creation that passes by me

Light in every color of the spectrum begins to emit from all gathered

Such amazing and variegated shades

Colors I’ve never before seen, no two are alike

Humans, animals, trees, plants, stars – ALL of creation is crowding in

Everyone has ample view of a path through the middle despite the masses gathered

“It’s time” was whispered from somewhere

Those words are echoed in incredible melodic tones by all around me

“It’s Time!!!”

The thumping increases in intensity

The hum in my veins feels as if I can barely contain it

A bubble rises in my chest

Laughter spills out of me in glorious color

Drums are approaching – the beat is in time with my heart – it echoes in my chest

Winged creatures release streak after streak of color in intricate patterns in the sky

A cry is heard “THERE!”

Everyone looks to the left on the path

There must be millions upon millions along this path

The mass as far as you can see begins to change in shape

Light in the most intense concentration is in the middle of the path

A sound arises…

The sound of earth moving and rumbling, joyous laughter, waterfalls after a heavy rain, voices lifted in triumphant shouts

Even the light is emitting sound – “holy” is whispered… and yelled all at once

The mass is moving in wave like motion – all of creation bows

All of creation bows not because it’s expected

We bow because the love and light from The Three are too much to take standing up

THEY – The Holy Three – laughing and somehow touching every being present, move along the path

I bow my head and close my eyes as an intense flash of heat envelopes me

A full conversation happens in an instant, my poor brain is stunned but my spirit is doing backflips

A cacophony of instruments, new and wonderful in shape and sound are in perfect time and tune

The Holy Three with thunder in their voices announces – “Now… A New Day!”

Cheers erupt from all of us and the vibration is wonderfully intense

What a gift… a new day… what a gift… to be invited to participate in this celebration everyday…

To celebrate with Them and join with all They’ve made – I’m speechless

I can hardly wait for the end of the day bonfire…

Psalm 98:4-8 (The VOICE)4 Raise your voices; make a beautiful noise to the Eternal, all the earth. Let your joy explode into song and praise;Make music to the Eternal with the harp; sing a beautiful melody with the harp and chorus.With trumpets and horns, fill the air with joyful sounds to the King, the Eternal.7 Let the sea rumble and roar, and all the creatures it holds shout praise; let the whole world and all those who live in it join the celebration.Let the rivers applaud and the mountains join in joyful song
