Eloquent Whispers

Eloquent Whispers

Oh hear the WHISPERING wind telling truths.
Saying to souls remember Calvary.
While WAFTING breezes…to eternity,
And hope one day all wonderers ye shall see –

FRAGRANT scented flowers, LAVENDER blooms.
Shall hear the DULCET songs from distant lands.
Perfect ELOQUENCE carries natures’ tunes.
Where SPLENDOR that is given calls creatures…stands.

A heavenly BLISS that by God was sent.
To those whose hearts feel loved and give love back.
TRANQUILITY and peace do not relent.
We live to learn life’s ways upon God’s track.

Shall we, then, march upon one narrow road?
The perfect LILT through life to God’s abode –
