A morning walk past a stream I amble along living my dream Birds singing sweet melodies A soft breeze plays with the trees Dappled sunlight amid shifting shadows My mind turns to lifes dualities Ever present throughout all creation Me You, Yin Yan, good bad, high low Wondering does it end in the everlasting What will our future, new life, look like I ask The Word, that dwells amongst us While I wait for an answer I consider The Lilies of the fields how precious The Sparrow that God takes care of All creation that shares His breath of life The beauty on earth just a precursor Of all that is to come, when earth passes I realize these thoughts are His answer As I go my way with joy of purpose I give thanks for what I know, but Even more so for all I have yet to learn
For me, this is a beautiful prayer. I don't know what I would do without your praises to our Lord. The picture is so rich. I wonder if it looks a little like heaven. xxxooo Janet
Truly beautiful Eileen!

Eileen, this beautiful piece reminds me of "God's phone #"
aka Jeremiah 33:3..."Call unto Me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not."

You got it big time when you said, "I realize these thoughts are His answer" because it is up to us to make it all word and understanding comes from within, not from outwardly.
The Word, that dwells among us. His spirit of truth and knowledge guides and keeps you. Keep on rejoicing and sharing. Well said, and to the point, Eileen. The times demand solidity and conviction, to the truth.

Dear Eileen,
This wonderful verse struck many chords within my heart:
The opening lines bring a smile for the awareness of the beauty of Creation. Then comes the contemplation of Life's dualities. The realization that all Creation shares the same breath of life. Finally, walking in the joy of purpose, giving thanks for gifts already given with a heart that is open to much more.

You have joy and wonder that is unimaginable and unsurpassed for those whose names are written in the Book of Life..
Grand write that touches on the Supernatural..

This collection of poetry addresses the nature of time, reflections on the natural world, the difficulty of loss,
contemporary social issues and gratitude for life.
