Notes About The Poem

The Artiste

He spoke to the sun Brought the light to glowing Revealing all the earth With its many splendors showing Mysteries beyond belief He whispered the trees Into expectant existence The birds, butterflies and the bees The joy, faith and promise Even their fantasies He breathed life into man Gave woman her energy Handed them nature and wildlife With the promise of a seed Who would be the child of their dreams He gave the life to the ground With assurance that pleasure would be found Amid the roses, rich and vibrant Through the hues of delighted sighs From dewdrop herbs – sage and thyme He blew out the light At night when the moon rose Revealed the lunar legends Shining down through the heavens Reaching our wishful reflections He delighted in His creation Allowed us to share His wonders and warmth With all His heart He loved and blessed us fully The artiste, our God He knew all our wants and needs Gave us His very best With a kind and gentle caress Then, He rested
