Be
Like
Water
水のような
Mizu no yōna
ps67

Space is 
gracious.

Raise praise
like a wave.

New moon. 
What's your tune?

Tides are pulled with the lunar day.
Water gives the moon a greater say.

The ebb and flow cycles twice
though it's not that precise
it is quite nice.

Watch the tides.
Two high and low shadow the day by size
They rise by twelfths in the experience of the eyes.
One, two, three and three twelfths by the fourth hour are spied.
Two, then one. The first and the sixth times were despised
in the size of the rise. ;)

Storms, wind and fractional moon produce a change in range.
Gravitational force makes the range look strange.
It changed.

Energy for life, be gracious to us.
Let your face shine in space for trust.

May your way be shown upon earth.
Your saving power gave nations birth.

Let the people raise praise for all it's worth.
Let equity say "We have tidal girth."

The earth has yielded increase.
The moon reflected a fractional decrease.
Love will not cease.

Raise praise
like a wave.

May divine grace bless us.
The ebb makes less wetness. ;)

Let the ends of the earth show reverence.
for love as the evidence for divine presence.



Psalm 67

To the leader: with stringed instruments. A Psalm. A Song.
1 May God be gracious to us and bless us
   and make his face to shine upon us,
          Selah
2 that your way may be known upon earth,
   your saving power among all nations.
3 Let the peoples praise you, O God;
   let all the peoples praise you.
4 Let the nations be glad and sing for joy,
   for you judge the peoples with equity
   and guide the nations upon earth.
          Selah
5 Let the peoples praise you, O God;
   let all the peoples praise you.
6 The earth has yielded its increase;
   God, our God, has blessed us.
7 May God continue to bless us;
   let all the ends of the earth revere him.
