Drawn to the Light by Dawn Pretty
Thinking about signatures, and artists signing their work, thereby increasing their value, I noticed how all aspects of the world conform to a pattern.
The verse on the back of the greetings card reads, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” John 8 : 12
Be it lightning, rivers, veins in plants and animals, trees, or a person standing with arms raised in prayer to God, the shape of a Y is integral to everything. I see it as the artist's style, the signature of Yahweh. I wrote a poem and did a series of works based on this. The forked fish tails, just another example of a beautifully designed creature, signed by Yahweh.
THE REASON Y
In the beginning...When surprised,
‘Oh my God’ is cried. Y
‘Jesus’ Y
With passion, but without meaning or intent.
Words exclaimed, but no response required.
In the end...’why,’ is asked.
Cried.
But no answer is wanted.
The name of God is Yahweh.
The alpha and omega,
the beginning and the end.
Some say the words with intent.
Hear the reply.
See God’s signature running through life.
The Y, and the answer.
Veins of truth repeatedly echoed in nature’s design.
Proclaimed in lightning.
Whispered as intimate chromosome.
Branches signalling pathways to the knowledge
of one
In whose image we are made.
