Another Spring

All lovely things are part of spring,
Each greening, borning, blooming thing.
A pansy face, a new made nest
In spring God sends his very best.

How can one see and yet not know
It's God who makes the springtime show?
Yellow chicklings, downy ducklings;
All new growings, all new sucklings.

Kitten and puppy, foal and lamb,
Each is sent by the great I Am.
In the worst of winter's fury,
Spring is coming, not to worry.

God sends our needs to keep us whole,
Topped off with Spring, to feed our soul.

Joyce 02/22/03

(smiles) Oh Joyce, this is gorgeous, sweet friend, this made me smile as all your gorgeous words do, imagining mother chicks incubating their eggs and baby chicks hatching on the first day of spring and bluebirds singing, yay! (kiss on cheek) This is breathtaking, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Joyce, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Joyce:  This is heartening to read as it is in the low teens here tonight!  No snow however.

Joyce this should be on a card and I am serious, send it to Blue Mountain - it's lovely, uplifting, and heartwarming.

Joyce, how much this warmed my heart. I am so ready for Spring to pop her head through the ground and bloom on the trees.

Topped off with Spring, to feed our soul."


Beautiful words ... hugs, Marti

contributes to its power.

Joyce this poem is so encouraging as I seem to be stuck here in the grip of winter, although I did notice yesterday the bulbs that I ever so sneakily planted without my wife knowing are starting to break free from the ground.  I hope she will enjoy her little spring surprise.  I know I enjoyed yours.  It is so easy to see God all of the beautiful growing things.

Thank you - Tim

(Big Smiles) I love this poem from start to finish, because it is filled with word images of so many of the soft, warm, and cuddlies that I just love so much to think about.... and you even end your poem with a very positive note as well. God certainly does provide for all of our needs all year round, but spring time has a kind of special way of topping all the rest of the year off. (Amen!!!)
