God's Grace

Beneath the diamond dust.
Of the twilight of the moon.

Thoughts of you float by my eyes.
My mind spins into a thousand lines.

Silver threads weave their way thru my soul.
And I am once again transported back in time.

The moon at the time was a blush of scarlet red.
As the heavens opened up and the stars fled.

As every grain of sand turned into a gem.
And the sea spoke eloquently with Him. 

 I watched the stars come back to twinkle in the sky.
The truth of God is hidden like a treasure in the light.

Though the canopy of this great land knows well his touch.
The deep blue of the night skies holds his mystical touch.

As the flowers did bow in God's holy light 
and spread the seeds of God's everlasting grace.

Hi Debbie You out did others in writing such a beautiful praise for God. All the lines are unique but i would like to mention the last line. All creatures of God praise God in their own words and style,some bow before God which we can observe in plants , etc As per the Holy Books, all the things praise Mountains, trees, plants, sea, animals, birds etc praise God but we don't understand their words. "As the flowers did bow in Gods holy light and spread the seeds of Gods everlasting grace. "

Today I am in Oklahoma, and I think this place missed out. Actually, the people are really cool. It's fun. Your story about your wire tapping is very interesting. Our privacy is moot in this day and age. No place to hide in the web unless one is an experienced hacker which I am not.

Naturally, God's love light shines. Fifty feet high above the pines. The northern lights dance with delight. Exclaiming all that is so right. May God's grace shine on your face Debbie. Thanks for the insperation.
