Listen to poem:

~As the rain falls from the sky it's so shines I must testify And the tree's so speak with leaves on their arms it stands and mist of the ground I so testify I must, I must, I so I gotta testify Green the grasses green they receive sound I so testify me so it does so speak to me I so testify The birds in the air The waters soars flow from Land crevices I receive I believe in all creativity Speak to me, speak to me, reach to me, reach to me O'God's nature The sun is in my eye I stare the physical eyes tear I Cry but my spiritual eye looks through the Sun the almond cotton clouds to the next level heaven and I often wonder even in that it too would I ever surrender I so testify I so testify sounds of creation in the silence the Stillness silence in a cold black I am Guided by a Heavenly power God is the sound God is the sound God is a sound I so testify He's my spiritual life in him I'll never die God is the sound He every were around Creative all and everything I just want to testify And your creation Lord Speak Lord speak In all your creation I just want to testify that it speaks Lord speaks
