Stellar Exceller Poem by Dorothy Kardas, Psy.D. Th.D.

Stellar Exceller



(Dedicated to my sister, Carolyn Johnson)

Eminent Hand placed you on unassuming floor,
Far and wide, opening providential door,
Launched astounding wonder,
No earthling can fittingly ponder...
Sending all into raptures over this amazing sight,
To see the light of love...
Brought a calm, bright-eyed,
In an instant, cherished dove...

Unveiled in fathomless superiority,
A soul patterned life on His generosity.
Benevolent Heaven bestowed luminous star
Brought from afar,
With giant-like heart,
Nourishing spirit on sustaining Bread of God...
Discerning the world is not worthy of thought..
Aiming tender feelings at what His Passion has brought...

Receiver of exaltation,
Golden trust in supernal restoration;
Her illuminating nobility
Stretches out in honorable humility,
Prudent, thanks to edifying self-giving,
Bestowed reward of calm living;
Self-imposed gem of privation...
A sign... of dignified habitation;
Zealous recipient of suffering high honor
For unsurpassed Victim and Donor...

No rough ground, no thorny intimidating terrain,
For she is bound unbendingly to the King's Reign.

Dr. Kardas, as always, a brilliantly stated poetic 'priceless jewel' of wisdom! I know I need to return several times to re-read your cleverly entwined critical essentials of living for Christ. As your wonderful sis, we all need our ' Souls patterned on His generosity' and need to be ' Discerning (that) the world is not worthy of thought'...Thank you again for a soul stirring piece of artwork. God bless you and your sister... Jey and family.
