NATURE'S GLORY
Scarlet are the poppies fair
That I twine into my hair

Tangerine the sunsets glow
And the reef fish down below

Sunflowers make my mom's heart sing
She loves them more than anything

Verdant, lovely grassy greens
Makes me think of fairy queens

Azure, vaulted desert skies
Glow forever in my eyes

Indigo my heart's desire
Lilacs fragrant do inspire

Purple plums and luscious grapes
Nearly twilight mountain-scapes

All the colors of God's palet
Couldn't be bought with any wallet
Crazy how hard it is to find a chaplet of roses. They were roses instead of poppies before but I couldn't find pictures. Ah well. Just as pretty.
No one paints like God does!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely true! And almost anywhere can one find something beautiful. I've seen the most gorgeous wild flowers up on the knife edge of a mountain mastiff. The deep blue of Moraine Lake, the stria of glaciers, the ripple of a field of sunflowers, the velvet green of ancient moss on the wall of a castle--all breathtaking. Even the desert has SOME beauty. Right now the cactus flowers are crowning the saguaros. All evidence that God loves and blesses us.
