~Thinking On Things~
~*~
Thinking on things
the great redwood trees
comes to mind
stately and ancient from time
reaching for heavens courtyard
limbs extending, holding one another,
~strength for the day~
towering towards heavens door
Oh, if only I could climb that high!
I’d climb to the top
sit among angels in white powder puff clouds
hear the gentle brush of wings
a sweet kind of hush in the wind,
whispers of praises they sing
Oh, to be closer to thee dear Lord,
~closer to thee~

Sounds like the place to be. Quiet, calm and serene.

I know not what the future holds,
but I know Who holds the future.

Isn't it wonderful that we can look at the natural world of creation and see spiritual things?  
Enjoyed this poem very much.
I too long for such strength and height.
Only many forget that there had to be death and burial of a seed long before such a thing ever was.

Lovely thoughts, to soar with the angels!

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

Blooming Rose,

I am enthralled in the ability of your mind to climb so high as to dwell in the presence of angels....  wonderfully imaginative,  Bob <><
