Old Jack FrostOld Jack Frost Winter is really upon us this year And I'm awaiting another storm So thought I'd revive this work And release it again............ Can you tell I'm a bit bored? Old Jack whispers frost across the window's chilly glass In patterns spiraling uniquely, beauty BEYOND mortal class. Degrees below the freezing zone, the ground is covered white Pale moon's glow makes diamonds on a snowy winters night. Each year I wait, impatiently, to see this special show~~~ Can Heaven be more beautiful than "Old Jack's whisper" can bestow?? The glorious mysteries we see in Nature's Manifestations Are but a glimpse at what the Lord provides in His Heavenly Celebration. So very much holds me here; where those I love and need reside, And yet, sometimes~~~impatiently~~~I yearn for the "other side". Enter into this heart of mine, Dear Lord, I humbly plead. With Grace and Mercy, You provide my every earthly need. Let Your Light shine through my eyes, Your Love may I bestow, As Old Jack whispers frost across this world down here below. Each breath draws me closer, Lord, like the frost melting off the pane So patiently~~~I wait for Thee,~~~until You Come AGAIN. karen reworked 12-8-2007 Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem
