Bees, Bugs and Butterflies
.
As I watch the sun
Breaking through the clouds,
As I smell the rain
Soaking in the soil,
Dripping from the flowers,
The birds burst into song.
Let the naysayers be wrong;
The world is alive again,
Saved from the brink,
And no matter what we think
God is in His heaven.
Bees buzz,
Shiny beetles eat rose petals
And butterflies flutter by…

The Droplet
.
As I watched
The line ran
Glistening silver
Towards the edge
Hesitated, elongated
Then drooped over
Poised to fall…

Water
.
Water gives life
And with it, we thrive
Cleansing, drinking
Its forms are many
Almost unending…
Rivers, lakes, seas
Even the tears we weep
As promises we make
And vows we keep
Or fail in our humanity
Whilst perfection we seek

Help
.
O Lord, our Father
Only You can change this earth
From negative to positive
Let us construct not destruct
Advance not retreat
Back and forth and round about
You are our axis
Nothing stands still
This world whirls around your wlll
Open our eyes to realise
We are nothing without You
You are the sun, the moon, the stars
You are creation, and all is in motion
To bring us back to You

Complete
.
You are my strength in weakness
You are my comfort in sorrow
Yours is the wisdom that I follow
You died on the tree to complete me

Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow
.
Past, present, future
Shades of lilac and blue
Been and gone
Over and done
History;
The here and now
Unfolding like the wings of the wind
Feathers flying in the breeze
And nature breathes;
Then the mystery of the morrow
(Joy or sorrow) lies before
but God is all we know for sure

Kindness
.
God’s love gives birth to kindness
whose gentle light both soothes and guides us
through the darkness and the mists of life
giving us peace throughout the strife-
torn world about us, holding us safely
on destiny’s path, aiding our ascendency
to our Father’s spiritual home

Waiting
.
Child of love in heaven born
Child of dew in the early morn
Angels sing a sweet refrain
Gently, softly till He comes again

Artists
.
Little gods with feet of clay
Under pressure from within
To create as themselves were made
In the image of He who wrought
The beauty of the world displayed
For those whose eyes are opened wide
And whose senses forever sought
To complement the portrait brought
And laid as offering to the only One
Capable of original thought

Perfection
.
We cannot conceive,
Are unable to perceive,
His perfection…
As His spirit fills our souls
And His inspiration fuels our goals,
We are humbled before Him ~
Our King;
Father of the universe,
The revelation of whose love
Holds us in awe, spell-bound,
Wanting nothing more
Than to praise and adore
Our Lord.
