Nature's Signals

The light changes colors 'fore my eyes Gentle breezes waft fresh scents past my nose Nature's signals all truth, never lies Morning's dew refreshes barefoot toes Brilliant sunrise, soars high my spirit Cool moonlit night, so uplifting The ocean's roar in a seashell, I hear it A leaf floats down a stream, drifting Angry clouds darken the sky, rumbling Swirling winds rage through the trees Sheets of rain from Heaven, tumbling At times Nature terrifies me -- Yet I welcome every sight and each sound May God keep me long above ground

I started reading and I said to myself, "I am loving this but what in the world did Gershon title this?" I immediately rushed to see, and it is perfect too.

Well, thank you, Ma'am. … Truth be told, I wasn't completely satisfied with the title... :) gw

I had almost forgotten how grass felt early in the morning to a bare footed child. I used to love that. Ah. Great memories. Thanks for the reminder. Have a great day my friend.

Yeah, it's too long ago, isn't it, David? We don't get to go back and visit either. Sigh. Thanks for the feedback, David! :) gw
