Notes About The Poem
Written on July 21, 2024
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dusty Reflections
Carried away by time, alibi
Decided and designed,
August’s excuse was never kind.
Reflecting summer’s shadow,
As dew drizzled petals confide
Praising the One who twisted each leaf,
Leaving them feeling such grief,
It’s the gentle kiss who amazes,
Poetic praises…
Rejected by September, her light
Falling soft against the skies
Blessing joy beyond her knowing,
Gentle the flow beneath the heart,
Trembling with quiet stories,
Erasing the melancholic pouring
Like rain showers,
Burning with a rage,
Far brighter than the day,
Moonlight desires, a fire
Quickest blaze, hesitating.
Stars in the November nights,
Wishing for peace, surviving
The unfriendly chill,
Medicine found in hesitant prayers,
Prayed for the moments,
Still and breathless,
Soothing away the fears, attesting
To the wonders, the tears…
Summer’s joy, Autumn’s knowing
Winter’s haziness…
Silent streams of amazing
Tortured by the faded crazy,
Deciding to abide in the lives
Who know the meaning, the significance
Of a year, passing through…
Season of grief, season of beauty,
Season on fire – season delighting,
It is only a tear, only a tear…
Saved from despair, saved so I hear
The song of His grace,
The saving in this faith,
Poetry on display, the truth prayed
On the empty tomb,
The empty that fills up the heart
With the hope of a love that won,
A love that is more beautiful than the sun,
Wonderous love that comes
from God’s only SON!
