Love

Love as deep as the ocean

Unfathomable

Love as vast as the sky

Immeasurable

Love as abundant as air

Incalculable

Love as infinite as the sands of the earth

Unbelievable

Love as wide as the world

Incomprehensible

Perfect, plentiful, unconditional

Jesus loves me this I know

For all creation tells me so

God’s Studio

Famed artist makes a local visit

Splashing vivid tones across the landscape

A dizzying array

A wild frenzy

A fantastic display

Gradients and bold, bright hues

Shades of pink and yellow, orange and blue

Matching and contrasting

Grass, trees and sky

Filling my garden and pleasing my eye

That glorious creator of color

Blossoms and blooms

Frantically bless our senses

Delightful and delicious to behold

His creative hand and eye at work

In His studio called Spring!

Perfect Spring Morning

Blossoms and buds

Awaken

Brilliant red rhodie

Perfect pink peony

Bright blue rock seed

Orange and yellow with purple splashes fill out spring’s palette

Trills and tweets

Twitters and sweet whistles

Carrying tunes of joyful birds on wafts of morning breezes

As they gather pieces of nesting treasures

Coolness ahead of summer-like days

Saltwater fragrances fill the sky covered in a thick marine layer

Awaiting the big reveal of sunshine blue skies

Reflection Perfection

In a shadow

Sun set stretches her thin along a path

In a pond

Ripples reflect the skewed expression

In a mirror

Reveal the flaws hidden in her skin, her hair

In a window

Reality distorted peering back

In his eyes

Perfection

Music of Spring

Finch plays her piccolo

Flicker on percussion

Robins join in soprano trills

Hummingbird with her metronome

Bees buzz in perfect harmony

Sparrows round out the symphony in melodious notes

Tones and tunes in perfect pitch

Notes and measures played on queue

All in praise of their maestro, conductor, creator

The music of spring returns

Pulling on heartstrings

Good Morning

Clock radio sings me into consciousness

I slowly peel my eyes open and leave my dreams upon my pillow

.

Coffee maker brews hot Italian roasted coffee

I inhale its rich aroma and pour its elixir in a swirl of just enough cream

.

Little robin red breast breaks the silence of my morning quiet time

Reminding me there is work to do

.

off I go

.

Stages of My Mind

Pondering

She sits on a bench by the edge of the bay

–

Deep thoughts

Fill her mind with questions

–

Mulling things over

She is unsettled as to what answers might come

–

Contemplating

The path and perspective unknown

–

Considering

The ups and downs, twists and turns

–

Meditating

She quiets her mind and opens her heart

–

Reflecting

Acceptance and peace enter in waves

–

Praying

In gratitude and praise to the God who knows all

Layers

Multi layered,

Multi faceted

Unseen layers

Private thoughts

Personal goals

Hopes and dreams

—

Hidden layers

Hurt and loss

Grief and memories

Love and hate and passions subdued

—

Intricate layers

Ideas and inspirations

Fears and triumphs

Aspirations and ideals

—

Outer layer

Designed and scarred

Unique and beautiful

Ingrained with the fingerprint of God the creator

Infusion of experiences and life

Inner strength and grace

Outer beauty, calm and peaceful

Protecting the inner layers like an armor

Allowing beauty and love and compassion to flow out
