Thinking Gerald Hopkins

When I see a kingfisher and dragonflies

My heart sings praises

When I hear stones falling into a well

My soul praises God

They just awake my inner castle

and make it a sanctuary of the One.

 

Your body is a Holy Temple,

They teach me

Your life is a gift from God

They remind me of God’s grace

Live as a letter from Christ!

They solemnly advise me

 

An invisible soul takes a form of a man

An inaudible song comes into a sheet music

Now I am playing my violin to show

The Face of the One in the melody.
