Kumandang Syukur (Puisi)
Embun di pagi buta
Mengundang lebah berdendang
Menyapa indahnya surya
Dengan kumandang syukurnya
Aku bangkit
Menelan semua kesedihan kemarin
Karena hari ini hari baru
Yang patut disambut dengan haru
Alam raya berkumandang
Lebah masih berdendang
Aku bersenandung
Bersama syukuri limpahan nikmat
Curahan berkat
Dan jutaan nikmat
Yang tak pernah berhenti mengalir
Dari Bapa-ku di surga
Bapa kita semua
Latar belakang penulisan:
Puisi ini saya buat dalam waktu kurang dari sepuluh menit sewaktu retret di Puspanita, Ciawi, 2-2-2013. Saat itu menjelang Ibadat penutupan.
