Darlene Gifford Poet Quatrain

God's Hushed Hello's

When I smell a scented flower,
or touch the petals of a rose,
I feel I'm touching God's face,
And hearing His hushed hello's.

Listen closely and you will hear,
God whispering to you in your ear.
There is no place you cannot go,
without His voice high pitched or low.

Next to a thundering waterfall,
God's powerful voice can be heard by all.
He speaks to you wherever you are,
by a bubbling brook, or a sky full of stars.

To hear God's laughter and merry mirth,
walk through His gardens here on earth.
Where butterflies and bees buzz and flit around.
Listen and feel God's Spirit, dancing to their sound. 

In splashing rain, or sunny skies,
in singing birds, or smiling eyes,
God's presence you will sense and know,
when you stop and listen for His hushed Hello's.

Brenda Meier-Hans November 10, 2014 at 2:39 PM Wow Darlene, this is beautiful. I agree, we can find him everywhere when we just stop and look and listen. Darlene Gifford November 10, 2014 at 5:21 PM So true, Brenda, going about our busy lives, sometimes God is not on our minds, and we miss his many hello's. I'm guilty too, of course. But, I'm finding when we do what you say, stop what we're doing, look and listen, it's amazing that we'll feel His loving spirit there. I'm working on a similar poem, so I hope you'll keep in touch. Now I'm anxious to go and see what you have been writing.
