Of Emerson...Thoreau and James
 
-Reflections from a morning's musings... and inspiration from those who have come before; those 'prescient critics' who spoke of the relationship between the soul and world surrounding us. Grand thinkers who, right or wrong, were 'not confined within the limits of institutions or traditions'.
 
Might truth be intuitively experienced from nature? Might this be God's way of revealing what is truth?
 
If all things are connected to God...are not all things divine?
 
 
"Along the Trail
of the Gossamer thread
Connected there...
from words I'd read
 
Of Emerson
Thoreau and James
From woods and streams
From ice and flames
 
A stream of consciousness imbued
upon my soul's infinitude
The proof of God
in nature's weave
Surrounding all I can conceive
 
The trail diverged in a yellow wood
And naked, humbled there I stood
Cold and wet and trembling
My soul was reassembling
 
Unto the form of grand design
Arrayed in spider silk
Divine"
