God's Gifts

Rainbow days and starry nights, Snow-capped mountains and eagles' flight. Crashing waves from storm-tossed seas, Refreshing rain and a gentle breeze. Delicate flowers and trees so tall, Red, orange and yellow leaves of fall. Rolling thunder and lightning bright, Sunny skies that bring delight. Cotton puff clouds on display, A clear blue lake where fish can play. The chirping of birds and crickets song, Invites all creatures to sing along. In all these things God can be found, Indeed, His gifts are all around. Open your eyes and be amazed, As God reveals His love each day. 8/2011 For Brian Strand's All Yours (April 24) contest
