In Stillness the Dancing

Connecting life, scripture, and poetry

thrill inexpressible

Beth Ferguson, August 6, 2009January 15, 2021

So our very first grandbaby was born exactly one week ago!  We have been visiting our little one this week … so there hasn’t been much time for writing.  But there has been much time for reflecting on the miracle of life, smiling at the beauty of a baby, and resting together while he snuggles in my arms!

There’s a smile that is brighter than sunbeams of May,
A wave of farewell as you’re starting away,
A glad time of frolic which no one can steal,
A thrill inexpressible, lovely to feel.
There’s something to boast of and something to tell
When a baby has come to the place where you dwell!
~ Edgar Guest

There is a proverb that says, Grandchildren are the crowning glory of the aged!  This is one of those times I just don’t mind being “aged!”

What a blessing our new grandson is …
