Engagement With Nature
Endowed by God with wondrous blessings*’ bounty
nature exposes His great Creation sovereignty:
awesome landscapes marked by His architectural acuity
mountain ranges grandeur and hills in their majesty
welcoming me for invigorating trek toward peaks’ serenity.
Waterfalls’ cascading crystals… oh, what a sight
glowing while flowing along rivulets gushing might
toward sea of billowing waves’ height…
beholding the ocean brings me spiritual delight
while gripped with the Saviour’s security-tight.
Refreshing breeze wafts warm assurance
midst Acasia leaves swaying with exuberance
I’m enclosed with calmness midst toil-propped endurance
neath canopy of bougainvilleas in their glorious appearance
uplifting my faith toward gratitude’s joyous clearance.
*Genesis 49:25 …God … the Almighty, who shall bless thee with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that lieth under…
