We
ourselves have known and put our faith in God’s love
towards ourselves.
God is love and anyone who lives in love lives in God,
and God lives in
him.
1 John 4:16

And then there are the roses,
finch-yellow,
opening
their poems
into the bright air;
unfurling
the gathering light
the gathering light
from the soft stages
of their skin.
Who can recite better
of their skin.
Who can recite better
the lines of eternity
in language of the hour
in language of the hour
or the proof of God
in the argument
of their beauty?
Who can resist
such loveliness
and not bend
to smell
their aroma of love
opening,
like bird songs,
from the leafy ledges
of night.

If you ever put together a book of your amazing, God-glorifying poetry, I hope you will let me know were and how to get a copy. Thank you for sharing your gift so generously.
ReplyDeleteThank you Nancy! You are so kind to me and I most certainly will give you one of the first copies! Our Lord is guiding this and I believe, if it happens, it will be in His time. In the meantime, I try to show up and
ReplyDeletewrite. God Bless you always.
