POEM: Creation Sings

CREATION SINGS

Written By Linda A. Knowles

Valentine 5

*

Flowers of splendid blossom rise,

Hills rolling majestic;

Horizons glow with palettes of rose and hues of yellow,

Rippling across the sky with glints of silver glistening.

*

Lush green pastures covered with droplets of morning dew;

Waters cascading from their falls.

*

All the wonder of creation displays a marvelous array of beauty,

Handcrafted, so intricately made,

From what once was chaos brought to a glorious order.

*

Golden rays of the sun lapping across oceans, brooks, streams, and rivers;

And eagles soaring above mountain heights and furrowed brows,

As the hind makes her way through the treacherous mountain paths,

And the lowest of valleys.

*

How majestic is Your Name, O Lord!

How majestic is Your Name!

Your creation continually sings of Your magnificence,

Praising Your splendor and majesty,

Giving the honor due Your Name;

And I, My Lord & King, can only do the same.

Where Horses Run Free

WHERE HORSES RUN FREE

Written By Linda A. Knowles

Lush green meadows

as far as the eye can see.

*

Wild flowers springing up all about;

Fragrance filling the air,

after the wind-driven rain of the night,

where horses run free,

where they gather to graze.

*

That I should run so so free,

With no fear of what is ahead,

Or what lies beyond the tomorrow.

*

Wildly free,

Like the way horses run,

And then to rest;

*

And enjoy places such as flower-filled meadows,

where horses run wild and free.

Let Me Lie

LET ME LIE

Written By Linda A. Knowles

Poppies 1

 

Let me lie

where poppies grow

where I can be covered

by a blanket of fresh fallen snow

where dreams can freely dance through my mind

A place where there’s no need to keep time.

*

Let me lie

in fields of green

where I can see jewels growing on trees

were clouds are cotton-candied shaped

where curtains of reality are no longer draped.
