I looked out through the window,
As a blizzard raged outside,
I saw You walking toward me,
With an oh, so graceful stride.
I quickly ran to meet You,
And You sheltered me in Your arms,
Warming me from the inside out,
Shielding me from life's harms.
We walked a while in silence,
As pine trees dressed in white,
Bowed as if in total awe,
At the presence of Your sight.
Your hand reached up just in time,
To catch a shivering a bird,
A beautiful, scarlet cardinal,
Whose pleas....only You heard.
Soon a tiny squirrel ran up,
Then a bunny, and a fawn,
You sheltered every one of them,
As the darkness turned to dawn.
And the snow began to fall harder,
Seeming swirled as if in a globe,
As You sat and sheltered the wee ones,
In Your soft, white velvet robe.
My cold heart quickly melted,
As I saw the smile on Your face,
This new day, just beginning,
Already filled with Your grace.

Ah,Bonnie; You've created a warm and loving portrait in the middle of the cold and snow. The warmth of His Love is all we ever need. Beautiful, as always, my friend. Love Ellie

I would love to see this one on a poster or framed with a background of the wonderful images you present to us. An extraordinary piece from you and I am so glad that I was able to read this one.

This is one very encouraging poem,the images it puts into my heart are only the most assuring and beautiful of the love of Christ for us. When all looks cold and bleak, He will always come to us, to shelter is from any thing the cold world blows our way. God bless you and your wonderful heart.
