There is a stillness after the raging
storm, a quiet only disturbed by birds'
songs; so many joyful sounds now heard
the coos, caws, and chirping none lagging
Solid clouds still amassed, no zigzagging
from lightning flash, just gentle Hummingbirds'
songs heard and windchimes' music undergird
Is the Master a different scene staging ?
Yes, His plans will soon be in motion set.
This planet is facing changes unseen
before; the angels very soon will no
more hold the wind's destructive force_ and yet
Will He soon to earth come His own to glean?
His own He'll claim I know; then winds let go

The zephyr that I couldn't dismiss
And pouring rain only sounds heard
Then the Spirit gave a good word
Go to sleep_rest, Spirit did undergird
God's presence, closer than a kiss

Pastel pink ballgown floats on horizon
Belle of the ball accompanied by gray gents
Dancing into early morn, roosters sing on
Still accented by soft entertainment
So swiftly has the dance floor changed to light
Like life that changes slipping up on us
A mother bird busied herself with bright
Eyes and wide mouths, then gone is little fuss
Cool is the morn, damp the air_ comfortable
Soon the golden sun will warm the air, chase
Away the chill, send me inside unable
To enjoy nature, But God's presence is in place
A few ballgown minutes, time moves onward
Thank you for this time in heart undergird
