Transformed

The red rising sun has transformed Into puffy white striated gray clouds Pasted onto a blue, sky-blue sky A lovely scene touched by cool air The partly cloudy touch says A chance of rain upon a dry land Others have had some showers, but So dry here, thank God no flood Morn's sun lifts above the clouds A brilliance sifts through the pecans It lights up the shimmering dew 'pon the grass Such a pleasant time on the porch There are coyotes and dogs barking Birds sing of nesting completed I wonder do they know of winter Or of a long winter's sleep Does this year's hatchlings have instinct Or is their brain a blank slate Only God knows some of the answers Because He was the one who created

David, everyone has some place where they can go to get the inspiration to write something. Porches are nice when the weather is nice or maybe just right. Thanks for the visit and the uplifting review. Sara K

You've shared such beautifu images of God's wonderous creations. Your words mesmerized me. Ah, the questions we humans feel compelled to ask knowing in our heart of hearts that He knows the answers and we don't need to know them...simple as that...spiritually uplifting poem. blessings, Sara B

Reading this, I feel like I’m right there on your porch, noticing every bird, dew drop, and sunbeam.

Thank you, Rowena. Sometimes we do notice those things that are there all the time if only we take time to notice them. I appreciate the visit and time spent here. Sara K
