Odd isn't it that such extraordinary and wonderful events such as God's purification of our magnificent earth are taken by us as routine operational services, rarely noticed though fundamentally essential to our very existence.

It all makes me wonder that when our individual Judgment Day comes upon us if we'll even bother to acknowledge God's presence before we're off to whatever we've earned for our Hereafter.

Are we becoming a little too focused on our own egocentric universe?

"Sweet Purity" is a very polite Wake-up Call reminding us that if we don't stop to smell the roses and acknowledge who makes them grow we may not be needed around here anymore.

I loved this poem and message, Jeanette: "All fresh like dew"!

Yesterday my sister in law sent me many beautiful scenes of God's painting nature. They were so colorful and attractive, and it was all due to God's handiwork. This write brought the memory of yesterday back to me. It is a most colorful world out there. Make the most of it and enjoy the fresh air and sunshile while at it.

Looking around, enjoying the beauty of God's creations - well written, Jeanette.

Wonderful write, Jeanette; very well penned/illustrated! BRAVA!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :D

I read the title of the poem just above yours on the "new poetry" page---and groaned inwardly, but just beneath it was "Sweet Purity," and I knew which one I would read.
Like the rain, your poem is cleansing and refreshing, a lovely picture to start my new day.

Jeanette, this is so nice. I love it, when after a rain storm the sun shines brightly...that fresh scent in the air...and there's an almost spiritual silence that exists...even if only for a few moments.

Lovely poem - perfect for getting my morning started within an air of fresh appreciation.

And I love your poem! There are truly many wonders to behold all around us - and all we need do is look.

BEAUTIFUL, VERY NICE!!!!!!!!!! Liana Margiva
