I went outside this morning
just to feel the crisp fall air,
As snowflakes started drifting down,
that's when I saw You there ~
You were gazing at the stately pine
now dressed in dusty white,
And feeding sparrows from Your hand,
As You showed Your gentle might ~
Your smile reflected tenderness
As You watched the squirrels at play,
I felt a warmth from inside out
when at last You looked my way ~
I saw the twinkle in Your eye
as You nodded toward the fawn,
And You danced as if to music
when the rooster welcomed dawn ~
You laughed out loud at chipmunks
and the grumpy old raccoon,
Who was startled when the dayshine
replaced the morning moon ~
You came to me with open arms,
a grin upon Your face;
Yes,I stepped outside this morning,
and was greeted with Your Grace.

How absolutely stunning. I could feel such joy filling each word. You write with a reverance that is tangible. Thank you for sharing the beauty of this poem.

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

I loved the "romantic" feel of this.  You chose a very creative way to express your praise.


Stephen.
