"God's Gifts"






"GODS GIFTS"

RESTING AT THE EDGE OF THE POND

CUSHIONED BY THE SOFT BLADES OF GRASS

I CAUGHT MY REFLECTION IN THE WATERS

AS IF IN A LOOKING GLASS


I PEERED CLOSER INTO THE RIPPLES

AND WATCHED THE CLOUDS, LAZILY DRIFTING

A FLOCK OF BIRDS, WERE TAKING FLIGHT

SPREADING WINGS IN THE AIR

AS THEIR BODIES, WERE LIFTING


THE SUN THAT FILTERED THROUGH THE SKY

FELL GENTLY ON MY FACE . . .

REMINDING ME, OF GODS GIFT OF NATURE

SURROUNDING ME, EVERYPLACE


SO GLAD I DECIDED TO MAKE THE TIME

TO ENJOY THESE SIMPLE THINGS

LENDING MYSELF TO THIS GOD GIVEN BEAUTY

OH, THE SATISFACTION THAT IT BRINGS!

PSALM 23:3
HE RESTORETH MY SOUL: HE LEADETH ME IN
THE PATH OF RIGHTEOUSNESS FOR HIS NAME
SAKE.
