A Walk With God

Clouds roll by and the rains come down,
In the distance, lightening, rolling thunder.
Around me, I see ... nature ...perfection,
Tended and beautified by Gods direction!

He, smiles with love and pleasure to see
Exquisite joy for me, happy and carefree!
The happy moments in my life, I am shown,
Twas by His Grace, granted and known!

Oft times, my heart is heavy and I haven’t a song,
He gives strength and courage, to move along.
It is then; I visit a quiet, peaceful spot in my garden,
Filled with plants, flowers, some rocks and trees
I am surrounded by beauty and many memories!

He speaks to me, surrounded by flowers in bloom.
Each with beauty and their own distinctive perfume.
Fragile, emitting a soft fragrance, illusive and sweet,
None delicate as a rose, a majestic flower of love,
Sensual, soft as fine silk, beauty sent with love! 

He and I walk alone, along the waters cool edge,
Peace and tranquility, where ocean and sand meet,
Waves, frothy and white, break cool on my feet!
I am in awe of His love, His tender and mighty hand,
He created all wonders, Earth, Oceans and Man!

How very small I am, compared to the universe,
Wondrous creations and life under skies of blue,
Mysterious, marvelous wonders, our God can do!

At the ocean, my favorite place, I know who I am...
I am at peace with God, feet and toes sifting in sand,
I close my eyes and rest on Him, enjoy my tiny space
In this space and at this time, I am here by Gods Grace!
