The Stairway - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

***Morning Glory*** · 11-02-2007, 10:14 PM

I climbed to heaven by a stair
Of locust tree and wind-cleaned air.
A rainbow-circled gate was wide,
Inviting me to step inside;
And there, within a dappled wood,
Felicity and Beauty stood.
I knew at once that they were kin
Of my own soul who drew me in
To share with them the ecstasy
Of law-created harmony.
Unrest, frustration, fled away;
I was at home...at home...to stay.
Oh, wonder-hour when tree and sky
Heard a lost starveling's lonely cry
And made of leaf and flower and sod
A stairway to the heart of God.
