Poetry

Rise up from your slumber and come away,
Winter has past for a beautiful spring day;
The rain is over peace flowing over land,
The flowers bloom so upright they stand;
The birds are flying their song in the air,
Such lovely skies to marvel as you stare;
The trees begin to blossom with new fruits,
Nourishment flows through the deep roots;
A fantastic sight of nature a gift from God,
Give thanks to Him through honor and laud.
Such a creation and beauty on this earth,
An artistic marvel with a priceless worth;
For God has molded all that you can see,
With such splendor both on land and sea;
Stop and smell the flowers for their scent,
Think about why God did and His intent;
For creating all that you can see thereof,
Because God is truly all peace and love;
For our benefit of all that was conceived,
So thank God for all that was achieved.
