Reflections and Promises
Silence swells the whispers
Snow, breathless… caressing the earth
Gentling the scene in echoes
Serenity dancing in flurries, a blizzard
Whirling and twirling, delicious
Praises, psalms, prayers
Winter’s faded march through
A mind who believes in joy, the knowing
Promising hope amid the despair,
Grace in the bleakest moment,
Light in the darkest twinkling…
Erasing the melancholic counsel
Doubt and confusion, uncertainty
Piercing through the music, a melody
Unfolding in the heavy heartbeat
Rushing, roaring, roaming
Autumn’s truth, peaceful and serene
Coloring the spirit in quiet hues,
Melding maple’s gold and amber
With the oak’s heavy handed auburn
Collapsing every plan of the past
With the cherished embrace,
Grace raining through the thoughts
Stirring crisp brushes of light
Soothing breaths of a vibrant vista
Warm and tranquil, still promises….
Growing heavy with the burden
Light fading into the past
Burning away second guesses
With miracles and wonders,
Abiding in the heart who knows
Nature is a continual flow of elation,
Brilliant, breathless, boastful
With its charms and captivating
Inspirational sincerity,
Kindness alive inside the words
Brought to life by the sunlight,
The moon’s glow and the starlight
Reflections, shimmering, dazzling
Enriching the spirit with splendors,
Beauty so blessed it is praise
Smothering every fear,
Inspiring hearts to believe…
Inside, where there is assurance
From the One who created it all,
The Spring and Summer with their
Fresh smiles and brilliant colors
To the Autumn and Winter, with so much
Imagination and spectacular abundance
It is familiar, yet strange to the heart
Who remembers the quiet way they smile
Into the life who agrees that His love…
Is more alive than even the heartbeat, the
Breathing of a hope inside those who know…
This love He brings is the ultimate gift.
It is light and life and love…
It is the promise from above…
That God’s grace continues to provide
Rich and colorful seasons and more…
A way to finally reach paradise…
A home that is eternal and offers every soul…
The miracle of a love that lives forevermore!
