Would things of spring seem quite as nice
Without harsh winter's wind and ice;
Without the summer's sultry air
Would spring seem even half as fair?

If rainy days were never here
Would still the fair ones seem as clear;
If skies above were never gray
Could azure steal my heart away?

Would joy still swell my heart the same
If sorrow never knew my name;
If pain had never stayed the night
Would times more kind appear as light?

High mountain peaks and canyons grand
Both speak His mighty awesome hand;
The desert sands, the oceans blue
Each cast, uniquely,heaven's hue.

Thank you Swan! I'll be looking for more of your work. You seem quite talented from the posting of today. I'm new to the Web, so I'm not too familiar with all this, but I'm learning.

Now this is poetry ... powerful message, artfully stated. I am impressed, and very glad you shared this inspiration.
