Spirit Seek

Out on the damp porch at daybreak
Rain pours from the dark clouds
Fog has settled in the valley
A bird sings very proud

A tree frog croaks piercingly loud
Love on his mind this day_
He croaked all night with his lover
Maybe he'll go away(to stay)

Duty calls even though rain drops
Necessary work speaks
If only I could soak in peace
And the Spirit seek__

Life's duties always seem to call but moments like this can sprinkle peace upon us, Sara. Thank God that we take the time to appreciate the beauty that has been offered. Soaking in his peace is wonderful, but, I believe the sprinkles are the spice of life. Beautiful poem, my friend...... Robert.

Your offering presented a morn I have had recently myself. Worldly duties and faithful seeking often collide but race takes all that into account and we are always covered by God's love first and foremost. A very fine write my friend!!!!!!
