Notes About The Poem

Distant Vistas

Distant Vistas

Painted mountains, 
and art show peaks;
God’s hand in every stroke…
The canvas alive, 
and moving. 

The sweetness of perfection, 
the honesty of reality;
“All” in reverence of… in awe of!

The Creator’s… 
skill and power,
His majesty and His grace.
overwhelming and consuming, 
boundless and beautiful. 

The very act of prayer, 
and subjugation…
only a small portion of 
the debt due and
completely un-payable.
My only hope, 
my Lord, Monarch and Sovereign.
the blood of the Lamb.

I am small, no more than a dot…
Barely upon the paper, 
lint upon the page.
Yet the grandeur of the King…
is seen… 
in every detail. 

Grateful am I, 
that He bothers with me.
