Notes About The Poem

Image result for pictures of spring sunrise with pear trees in bloom

Earth's Crumbling Sand Repost

Slowly the apricot sun rises

After spring's storm of yesterday

Pear blossoms quietly await sun's warmth

And bumble bees delightful play


A cold breeze stirs the bamboo wind chime

As roosters break the quiet morn

With crows calling sun wake up

Another day is suddenly born


In this quiet and stillness given

Before coyotes stir and yelp

Help me to be the person needed

One with spiritual and wisdom's depth


Let me be a solid anchor

Planted not in earth's crumbling sands

But anchored upon the solid Rock

A place not made by man's hand


Show me how to live each moment

In a way pleasing to Your commands

As I go about my daily chores

And answer my families' demands

You describe nature in a beautiful way. Then turn to love in the second part. ~~
