Mesmorized

Through the bosky brush, straight lines stand Lean and sinewy, yet with thickness, strong Surrounding the curtilage which encases - Elysium ensconced on a heavenly hill Lines point upwards, then take many different paths Each direction, somewhat crooked lines hold ornaments Like a pendant that hangs on one's neck Yet an arboreous arrangement for all to see Thousands of jewels yet none alike Each holds data, its own memory Someone knows this;  someone accomplished all this I came out of my torpid daze Looked out west from his dwelling place Dozens of tall oak trees endure in majesty Amazed am I at this creation; the Creator The Wonder of it all

Amen to that- For He IS perfection and allowed us to enjoy it... Because He loved us so much, He gave His begotten Son for the forgiveness of our sins... He is perfection... Great write... Hugs, Tanya

So true, though I lose sight of it often in my worldliness and ambitions to please myself. Thanks for reading and answering. Thomas

Thomas, my talented friend, I am captivated by your writing. I also find it educational.... I've grown attached to my dictionary as I read your posts.... magnificent work... This one, in praise of the one sovereign God of all, reached and touched a special spot in my heart.... Jake

You nailed it my friend. True story on my last vist to see Mom, in the house I grew up in. She passed away May 6, and sadly, the house on heavenly hill is up for sale. None of her six sons decided to buy the house; under the right circumstances it is the perfect place to live, but it's time for another family to enjoy God's beauty. Yes, God is good brother. Thanks, Thomas
