~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lost in thought, on the edge of a creek bank,
where the heart is caught between the songs
spun by dandelion seeds, blowing softly,
and whispering winds, gifted with wonders…
gentle joys, swiftly playing on the edges of a dew-stained moment,
when colors of grace in hues of rich purple and scarlet, remember
the burnt amber, the laughing sienna, the distant buttercup yellow,
playing on the heart who can see through the distant seas…
a dream, unburdened by the winds and the rising sun, beyond the shadows
a morning clinging to the moon despite all she’s done,
sensations of trembling psalms, abiding in the nights,
shadowed by light who will never fade,
because the sun casts her light where there is One…
who knows what it is to see through the ache, the pain, the grief,
into the drifting of a light, a sense of what it is to believe,
His life, a gift to those of us who can see
beneath the faded silhouettes of darkest storms,
through the past and all the dread, the doubts that come
from racing with the wind who reveals only One…
see what He has done brighter than the sun…
He is the Son who clings to the souls of those who’ve known
the meaning of life, the meaning of joy, the meaning of love
lifted by prayers who fade beyond His healing words,
like a song, He never stops playing
as He seeks to save, eternally saving those who were lost,
amid the sins darkest crimes, depravities, evils seen
by the distant peace, the forever belief…
as we weep for the weak, those who never leave
their wrongs, seeking the love that He’s shone
in the shadows of the sun, burning with grace
that comes from the One who is truly love
love beyond words, beyond descriptions…
He is the truth that convicts and convinces
saving souls from the worst punishment,
eternity without the One who prevents us
from knowing what it means to live eternally
without the love that is the whole reason for living!
In the shadow of the Sun,
He shines so hearts are won,
by love that comes from One
who saves to the uttermost,
assuring us of a love that is sure,
love that is eternally alive
inside the hearts who God decides
will live forever – by His side,
eternally praising, with love so amazing!
