Song of Sorek

Wonderful world

I leave my footprints along the sun-drenched flood line
I try to make a pattern, a mark so neat
But the waves are playing with those prints of mine
And nearly sweep me of my feet

Oh, to touch Your great creation
Oh, to be a part of Your wonderful world

I leave my footprints on this ancient mountain trail
The earth beneath my soles is soaking wet
The mud is sticking to my feet, still small and frail
And paints them with her deepest color red

Oh, to touch Your great creation
Oh, to be a part of Your wonderful world

I leave my footprints in the gold of glowing desert sand
My toes are digging for the cooler layer
While I let some dust run softly through my hand
And whisper all these thoughts in prayer

Oh, to touch Your great creation
Oh, to be a part of Your wonderful world

Meditation of Sorek

Happiness is like the evening breeze that refreshes you but leaves no traces. Sadness is like the rain that drenches you and leaves you wet and cold, even after the storm is long gone...

Why is it that bad moments seem to last the longest time while good moments rush by like the wind? I wish the happy times would have no end and last forever, like it was in the spiritual realm where I come from. Somehow I have learned that man is not able to capture happiness for a keepsake.

Based on the short novel Breath of Life I have written (and revised) a script for a theater production.

press coverage Breath of Life

Ventura County Star prints great article
"Marja Meijers' Breath of Life takes readers on a journey to birth"

Last Wednesday the Ventura County Star did an intersting article on my latest book Breath of Life, and I am very thankful for that. It is a great read as they have really pointed out what the book is about. I quote: "Taking it beyond a political debate, Meijers aims simply to present the issue of life vs. choice from the perspective of the unborn child".
