Out On the Porch At Dawn
Out On The Porch At Dawn
Written by: Sara Kendrick, USA
Slowly the apricot sun rises
After spring's storm of yesterday
Pear blossoms quietly await sun's warmth
And bumble bees delightful play
A cold breeze stirs the bamboo wind chime
As roosters break the quiet morn
With crows calling sun wake up
Another day is suddenly born
In this quiet and stillness given
Before coyotes stir and yelp
Help me to be the person needed
One with spiritual and wisdom's depth
Let me be a solid anchor
Planted not in earth's crumbling sands
But anchored upon the solid Rock
A place not made by man's hand
Show me how to live each moment
In a way pleasing to Your commands
As I go about my daily chores
And answer my families' demands
