Promises In Spring

S            So swiftly as sunlight pierces a cloudy day, lies the
P            Promise that day from night is born
R            Resting gently, the golden ray on startled cheek
I             Is like a feather from a singing lark
N            No lovely thing from Him is ever lost
G            Giving faith in tomorrow's renewal, with reverant intent 
F            For beauty hidden from our sight
A            A little while, returns ....and then....
I             It lifts with wings and flutters on
T            The humble prayer of Easter is not in vain
H            His proof of life everlasting, arrives in every spring

Slight Buckling Date: 3/9/2010 9:40:00 AM A very warm and cozy bowl of sunshine. Thank for your kind comment on my musical poem. That is how I feel when I listen to that piece. One of my favorite ways to listen to it is by watching this time-lapse of picturesque scenes of Edinburgh, Scotland with Philip's Concerto in the background. It brings goose bumps every time I watch it. You can find a clip of it on Youtube. Thanks for reading. Login to Reply
