Kind, like the time hope
Filled me with light,
Sunrise showing up in the dawn,
Silencing the dark and gentling
A calm breathed through the oaks,
Compassionate, dreamy 
Feelings bleeding through the mists,
Erasing the bitterness, the tears
Embracing the miracle of spring,
The ripeness of life in balance,
Nature’s sigh bringing such allure,
Reassuring and encouraging
So only the night, the stars, the moon
Feel like there is anything like melancholy

Generous, like the moment faith
Shushed the doubting, 
Bringing to life the shouts of devotion,
The conviction, the many emotions
Coloring the soul in hues of joyful
Sunrises and moons glowing
Through beautiful skies, sapphire nights
Burning with shimmering stars –
Heaven’s laughter, encouraging special
Songs of worship, praising
With endless prayers, praying
Like there is no closure, only the
Opening to His words, His scriptures
Removing every suspicion, every question
With glorious wisdoms found in proverbs
Meant to reassure, to bless and to prove
To those who listen – there is truth
In the brilliance of biblical witnesses

Alive, like walking on fire
Enthusiastic, fervid feelings
Exalting – miracles, godsends
Comforting, uplifting, calming
Stirring the flames, burning away
Death with blazing hungers,
Thirsty for the waters that wash grief
Beneath the surface of love,
Love so full – so giving, so tender
It feels like this is a prayer, surrendering
To His beauty, His brilliance –
His forever peace, like no other 
Serenity equipped with inspirations,
Praise and reassurance, music
Melodies intense and feverish, like
The radiating heat of summer’s thoughts,
Beckoning to be refreshed
By the winds, storming through the past
Melting away the furious flames
While still – there remains, the fires of grace

In the most mysterious dreams
There comes an abiding stillness,
	Harmonizing as He speaks
Light to the sun, 
	Glowing like love –
Joy to the waters – seas of joy
Wise like nothing on earth,
Rain blessing each river, each ocean
With a dream of eternity washing away
The dread of falling beneath the liquids,
Drowning in the darkest fears –

	In the moments when light smiles
Hope, wonder – blessings, wild
As the color purple, just as gentle
As the tender rose, a miracle of true love
In Him, there is being known as we’re never known,
With a love that is something only He could have grown
	Love this honest, this genuine, this kind
Is a love that will survive throughout life and time
A love that is better than any dream could find
A love that is meant to be yours and mine, LOVE
Inspired by the One who is stronger than any light
Mightier than any warrior, more alive than any life
He is the answer to every heart, the whisper to every soul
Reminding that LOVE is the reason God made us all!
