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;5 Make music to the Eternal with the harp; sing a beautiful melody with the harp and chorus.6 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.8 Let the rivers applaud and the mountains join in joyful song
