Soft falling rain

A day of drizzle
of quiet outside
clouds are so low,
I can almost feel God's arms
wrapped in his love
sensing his presence
feeling God with me
walk toward heaven

A Message of God’s Love

Across the skies
a message of God’s love
The colors, a changing tableau
love echoing, murmuring
a visual chorus
charged across the skies
The sun, the moon, the sky
dancing in their positions
with the stars above
shimmering God’s glory
in our eyes below
