HEAVEN WITHIN

Joy Dell

The tiny leaf uncurls, expands
at touch of spring:
it does not cry for further strength
but stretches out its dew-drenched length
by using inner might.

And thus we too unfurl, respond
to touch of Christ:
sweet dew of inspiration flows.
Through waiting corridors it glows,
diffusing inner light.
