A Simple Little Feather

A SIMPLE LITTLE FEATHER A feather floated to the ground while I walked, Even, as with The LORD, I did talk; I had been telling HIM of the troubles I had; How certain situations were making me sad; Things just weren't right within my life; Told HIM of struggles, depression and strife; That's when I saw the feather fall down; I looked to the trees and all around; I saw no birds, from which it might have come; Heard no singing, not even a hum; I bent and picked the feather up; Gently, it laid in my hands which were cupped; Then, vaguely, I heard a sweet chorus above, That sang of HIS greatness and Everlasting Love; Though I could not see, from whence it came, I knew right away and smiled just the same; Since that day, when my eyes fall upon, The feather that now resides in my home, I think how The LORD, answered a desperate plea, With a simple little feather, HE allowed me to see!
