In the quiet and comfort of my yard outback My thoughts lifting up, and my burdens unpacked To the King of the Heavens, King of my heart "My sorrows You bore, and no patience You lack You knit hearts together though once ripped apart" And so as I prayed Holy Spirit came near "I know Lord, someday You'll dry each sorrowed tear" Pondering deeply, then glanced up at the sky And lo, in the heavens imagined His eye Was this just shear images of my mind? No, it was a gift from my Father so kind. My prayers were uplifted, not spoken out loud A glance toward the heaven, an eye in the cloud. Reminding His presence is near us indeed Father watches over us, hears unspoken pleas

Thank you Victor, yes, He is such a wonderful Father. I felt Him so near to me as I prayed, and was so surprised by that cloud :)

Thank you Sotto, I was so blessed with that amazing site of the clouds. I thought for sure by the time I got into the house for my camera, and back outdoors to snap the picture, the eye in the cloud that I imagined would be gone. It wasn't as clear, but I kind of got it :) Our Lord is so gracious to us. I'm glad you liked my poem :)
