Sunshine and rainbows
Sweet daffodils
Roses and tulips
Beaded lace frills
A field full of dandelions
Waiting a blow
A flock of His birds
Digging in snow.
Watermelons so red
It drips of such taste
Willows that weep
With purple buds made
Pools of clear water
And rain with a scent
These are the things
That cause me to grin.
Deer in the distance
Remind me His Word
Daring my coming
To heights still unheard
Tender spring showers
Where suns still aglow
A warm burning fire
Hot chocolate on the stove.
A long summer sleep in
That bids no alarm
A hug from a friend dear
That’s gentle and strong
A newly given lyric
With melodic symphonies
The very kind of thing
That always blesses me.
A calm summer breeze
Birthing beautiful poetry
Trees that do whistle
Creating melodies
Falcons that perch
Outside my window
Eagles that soar
From great heights solo.
Lilies that bloom
With trumpeting design
The Bible that stirs me
And Jesus whose inside
The Spirit of God
When He breathes a deep sigh
These are the things that
Keep me alive.
