THe Sweetest Music

Sometimes our eyes are struck in awe
at splendors trivial and small
Sometimes the sweetest music heard
is in the trill of winter bird  

The steps of faith are not immense
to visit God’s magnificence
The grandeur of His mighty power
is in the silence of a flower

At times, truly all we need do is silent ourselves to hear and see the splendor of God in all that is natural around us...  You have conveyed a beautiful message.   -Bob

Ah, Liz; This is lovely and profound..."silence of a flower"...Love, Ellie

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