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!
