Ashes his heart is!...Because he knew not the One who fashioned him....To know You well is complete justice, and to know Your might is the root of immortality. (Wisdom 15:3, 10-11)(NAB)

Knowing God is, we say our vows
When vesper deer come forth to browse
Telling the beads of many a yesterday.


                                                                              

















Ave Maria while the evening star leans low...(Donald Davidson, "Gradual of the Northern Summer")

July

Earth in her heart laughs, thinking of the harvest,
Sharp as a sickle is the edge of shade and shine.
--George Meredith, "Love in the Valley"

"Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increase." (Psalm 4:7)

Amen.

...ut cum sanctis tuis laudem te in saecula saeculorum.
 
...that with Thy saints I may praise Thee forever and ever.
Amen.
