Bountiful
An aching sun falls, hesitant
Against the hills who tremble with autumn
Leaves, both gentle and fanatical,
Dancing to the melodies of truth, erasing
All of summer’s golden muse…
Twirling through the moments, peaceful
Ever changing, exchanging fresh green
For the hopefulness of blazing crimson, amber
And breathless golds who test the moments
With graphic breathes of toasty autumn….
Memorizing yesterday’s kisses
With reassurance that comes from remembering
What is like the trails along gentle ridges,
Where moments become buried in embraces
Heaven’s hold on the precious nostalgia,
The season of eternity, forever blazing on the hills,
Teaching the moments to see through pools,
Lakes of sensitivity, blazing flames of inspirational
Praises, awakened by the seas of admiration…
Longings from the tenderness, so gentle
Abiding inside those who see through the richest
Grace, into the eyes of a penetrating race
With destiny, stabbing away the aching dark
With lights, glistening on the heavens, remembering
Blessing the soul with a peace that is endless,
Serenity inviting the wings of angels to embrace
The soul…
A tender dawn sighs through the promise,
This moment in throbbing pulses, rhythms of light
Softly flowing against the flames of His truth,
Seasons pour out their beauty in colors so exquisite,
Charming the feelings, awakening prayers
Foreseeing the eventual in blessings who believe
Darkness will never succeed…,
Autumn lights, sun – stars – moon
God’s design, lifting the shadows of gloom
Healing the heavy hearts and providing new
Beyond what we could imagine, grace and kindness,
Flowing through the veins, hastening to ride
Beyond the seas of intimacy, into the moments
Who risk everything to gaze into the eyes of the Son,
The One who erases every doubt and promises,
Life that will be everlasting light, the light of hope,
The light of faith, the light of a peace that is beyond
Anything we could possibly explain…
We’ll never be able to explain this truth,
The one that promises forever, eternity with One
Who fights away the darkness with a light so pure
It feels like the heart and soul have been soaked
In a love that is beyond words, beyond comprehension,
A love so alive and wonderful it speaks in tones of everlasting,
Ambiances of grace, hope and faith – love that lives
Because He came to silence tears and to give each soul
A way beyond the darkness who haunts, the fear that taunts,
A way out of the crowded doubts where the soul cannot believe…
It is Him, Jesus… who loves like there is no reason to doubt
Because of Him, there is a joy that we’ll never figure out
It is a perfect that silences every suspicion, replacing our fears
With the wonder of true love … His gift to those who just believe Him
