~ (~) ~ the Things of These ~ (~) ~(Part #5 of 6) ~ (~) ~
Still being drank all throughout whatever heat of the day.
Like the boxcar Children Daniel Boon and Nancy Drew being read to the little ones,
Credences' Have You Ever Seen the Rain, and Fleetwood Mack's Songbird, along with a little
Fernando Ortega Nearer My God To Thee, the Braveheart theme along with Eric Clapton's
Tears in Heaven God bless him and warm prayers for Him and his wife playing in the
background to tuck us and all into bed in the evening.
As my wife and I and children laugh yes their smiles filling Her and me with joy riding
high under the moonlight as the new soft evening breezes blowing away teary eyes...
sniffling noses. The stars ascending high up in their joy I know rest even higher in their
hearts. The Sun lying down in the sky auburn clouds rising up to be kissing it floating by
as the many fowl fly touch down again only to climb to new heights to do it all again, the
next day.
And as the Mantis does have the heart to pray and as gentle winds provide the earth just
enough hope to blow the leaves each fall off the trees, shrubs pines and vines. Taken in
by the light, as I think of the Sun... . As the little honey humble bumble be bumbles on
by-here-along-beside-me ... . The mere fact is even as I try I know, purple flowers ocean
tides in-there-fullest of sway... and gravity - in the brevity as I write... and as though
I may try... and can spin a yarn of lines, I guess, as they are far greater these things -
being of God I cannot paint such beauty nor reality, truth... what goodness He radiates
such as this, the very wonder of these-things.
Yes, these are His things I believe of the many, benignity ... .
