Notes About The Poem
Written on September 17, 2024
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Granny's Gift, God's Glory
A room alive with voices who thrive, healthy hearts,
spirits of joy abound, sounding like the melody of family,
Intimate pieces of yesterday, mixed
With the present and the presence of grace.
Unspoken, the words – still, roaring, a lion heard through the silence,
Softly whispering kindness, stirring light
Who gently plays with the moments, hesitating
Like the painting on the wall - of Jesus, the bible
On the coffee table, a statement from her heart.
A room alive with songs so bright, vibrant hues of hope and love, faith
Insight into the psalms and proverbs, pieces of miracles, wonders surviving
All the fears, the tears, the years – before peace soothed away every doubt,
Leaving His presence in the house…
Beneath the nights who try to consume,
There is a grace that reassures, a prayer that abides to prove…
Granny’s gift left the world with an inheritance
Measured in light, flavored with insight
God’s glory shining bright, as the world keeps turning,
Remembering, discerning – Jesus is returning!
