It is early spring
The birds sing the Lords song.
The sun sneaks up over the lawn
Warming the new life that’s born.
The dew covered grass
Glistens in the light.
A little rabbit nibbles in delight.
The bees go buzzing bye
To find a sweet flower
On which to dine.
The butterfly dances across the sky
In all this I see
The Lord’s Smile
Spread across the clear blue sky.
(1976)
For as long as I can remember the beauty of nature has always moved me. Even as a child I would love to watch the dawning day from my bed room window. In the dark I would sit and listen to the sounds of the night. The rain and snow falling has never stopped engaging me. It was and still is in these sounds and sights… I see God. This particular poem I never named. So today I will call it “God Needs No Name.” As god is Omnipresent.
God Is I Am
