Splendor Rising

    A thornbush, crowned by a rose
      A spiny cactus, become ‘Queen of the Night’ ... 

    Atop fraught frames, shines glorious splendor
      Heaven's treasures ~ man ought not surrender

Great comparison of a not so liked feature to a great feature such thornbush to be crowned by a beautiful rose and a spiny cactus becoming Queen of the night. The bad in us can be transformed into good by forgiveness and our better self brings heavens treasure in salvation although we are falling with our sin but being redeemed is the value in us as compared to the thornbush and the cactus. We are splendor rising to a better place, Heaven. Gershon very thoughtful piece. You wrote. Lovely message
