Reflections and Promises

Silence swells the whispers Snow, breathless… caressing the earth Gentling the scene in echoes Serenity dancing in flurries, a blizzard Whirling and twirling, delicious Praises, psalms, prayers Winter’s faded march through A mind who believes in joy, the knowing Promising hope amid the despair, Grace in the bleakest moment, Light in the darkest twinkling… Erasing the melancholic counsel Doubt and confusion, uncertainty Piercing through the music, a melody Unfolding in the heavy heartbeat Rushing, roaring, roaming Autumn’s truth, peaceful and serene Coloring the spirit in quiet hues, Melding maple’s gold and amber With the oak’s heavy handed auburn Collapsing every plan of the past With the cherished embrace, Grace raining through the thoughts Stirring crisp brushes of light Soothing breaths of a vibrant vista Warm and tranquil, still promises…. Growing heavy with the burden Light fading into the past Burning away second guesses With miracles and wonders, Abiding in the heart who knows Nature is a continual flow of elation, Brilliant, breathless, boastful With its charms and captivating Inspirational sincerity, Kindness alive inside the words Brought to life by the sunlight, The moon’s glow and the starlight Reflections, shimmering, dazzling Enriching the spirit with splendors, Beauty so blessed it is praise Smothering every fear, Inspiring hearts to believe… Inside, where there is assurance From the One who created it all, The Spring and Summer with their Fresh smiles and brilliant colors To the Autumn and Winter, with so much Imagination and spectacular abundance It is familiar, yet strange to the heart Who remembers the quiet way they smile Into the life who agrees that His love… Is more alive than even the heartbeat, the Breathing of a hope inside those who know… This love He brings is the ultimate gift. It is light and life and love… It is the promise from above… That God’s grace continues to provide Rich and colorful seasons and more… A way to finally reach paradise… A home that is eternal and offers every soul… The miracle of a love that lives forevermore!
