Grace- A New Poem

Grace A gentle wind caresses the leaves Rising………. Falling………. Whispering, Somehow……. calling Again…….then again. I see it just now Your breath…….. Your Life...... Filling my beloved Even as she lay sleeping Her breast Rising…….. Then Falling……… Whispering, Somehow…….calling Again……then again The Spirit of the Living God pours over my soul Coming with a rush……. With power Like the laughter of children On some bright and joy filled day Rising…….. Then Falling……… Whispering, Somehow…….calling Again…...then again My heart bursts O’ my God, My Father Oh what have I done Oh what have I done? To witness such beauty- To receive such gifts...... Such gifts meant for a son. The sky lights in the distance...... It pushes the darkness back. My bride lies close to me In restful slumber no lack. Oh the wonder of it all That I……. Even I……. Could know………. Your Grace.

1 John 3:1 See what great love the Father has lavished on us,

that we should be called children of God!

And that is what we are!

Amen
