by Frank Lee Jennings

The Dogwoods bloom in spring
and God is on the hill
I see him in the blossoms there
my eyes drink in their fill

He’s in the river valley too
when birds are on the wing
then soft spring nights with fallen dew
that covers everything

The newborn young of all his beasts
cling to their mother’s side
and cry the cry of infant things
with mouths all open wide

Young green leaves leap from the bough
unfurling glory new
their seasoned life starts passing now
so wasted moments few

And man reborn of grace and blood
of Jesus whom they killed
is like the spring when life is new
and God is on the hill

KNOWLEDGE IS A DEFENSE AND MONEY IS A DEFENSE, BUT THE EXCELLENCY OF WISDOM IS THAT IT GIVES LIFE TO THEM THAT HAVE IT.

The flow of words make this piece a joy to read.  The title and subject matter give God the glory in appreciation of His works.  A heartwarmer!
