A new day beckoned and I awoke
With a dream to write a poem
When the new day spoke:
"I am a poem", said the day.
"I will be a sonnet to your soul
If you choose to listen on your way."
"A scent of lilacs and freshly mowed grass
If you choose to breathe deeply
And not let the moments pass."
"A masterpiece of flowering trees
Shared with you for a fleeting moment
Before the petals dance to the ground on the breeze."
"Like fragrant snowflakes filling the air
And creating a carpet of pink
Placed by God with tender care."
"Live fully each moment of me
With gratitude for your every breath
And you will truly see"
"I am filled with new mercies and unending love
Peace and hope for today
From your ever-present Father above."
"My gifts to you are a reminder that God will never fail
Joy comes in the morning
....Be still and exhale."
"And when night begins to wrap you in darkness
I am a poem written upon your heart
poignant memories that whisper in the quietness."
"Every word, every line;
Some filled with sorrow, some with joy
Each one a testimony to God's peace sublime."
"I am a poem", said the day.
"Will you read me?"
