Summertime

“O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.”  Psalm 34:8 (NKJV)

The dawn streaked red

Wide across the open sky

Hope raised for the day ahead

As birdsong filled the air

 

God’s Glory shone in dew wet grass

And late Bluebells dance

As Daisies flourish

Tall by the roadside.

 

His Holy Swathe bright with early Summer

Bathes colour on the earth

As seeds nudge through with green surprise

 

This sacred image rich with promise

Grows and blots out barren land

Where nothing grew

Fills now as God’s Mighty Hand makes new

 

Creation raised by unseen Love

Forms images copied from Above

Beauty rides as Grace abides

And quietness settles

 

 This vast Glory bids us see

 I AM IS HERE

He goes ahead

There’s no need to fear

His Promised Land is near
