I am awed:







I stand in awe and contemplate nature's beauty Deep within I feel a very real sense of duty Awe that I can marvel at a butterfly's flight Then from my heart be able of butterflies write I contemplate how plants can sustain survival Especially when it is such a dry year all upheaval Yet God the great designer knew just what to do To assure food, beauty, life as seeds strew I muse on little happenings in nature As a water droplet trickles down to nurture Small creatures of the early morn and give sup As they can drink from the leaf as if a cup I meditate on God's goodness at these times In His presence I humbly bow and flows rhymes This meditating releases stress worry in time I can feel the touch of the Great Sublime I understand there is a Supreme Being When I look at his creation I am agreeing Of his forethought on making the earth With all its beauty, constancy and rebirth I stand in awe at the wonder of it all From the Grand Canyon to an ocean squall I stand in awe at the mountain ranges capped with snow Of God's love for those in the valley below Contest:Chose your theme Sponsor: Paula Swanson *Note...Click on About This Poem For full enjoyment

Yes, indeed - all these things are truly marvels, aren't they? And we often take it all for granted - or, at least, many of us do. Lovely write, my friend
