As Day Draws Nigh

A river goes roaring by

Rushing swiftly on

A tree reaches for the sky

Yearning for the sun

A cloud floats into horizon’s eye

Dancing and dodging

Having its fun

Birds soar on the wind’s whispered sigh

Drifting and gliding

Until they are done

A mountain looms over all so high

Guarding and watching

As day draws nigh.

 

Morning Song

“Awaken O Day!” to the morning song!”

Words speak your halos around the moon

Eternal stars twinkle beyond the clouds

Chirping birds call through the dewy air

“Awake!” “Awake!” “Sing praises to God!”

Time is new a precious gift

Not to be wasted or ignored

Minutes flying into the past

Streams of glory ride the ocean’s tide

Misty fingers beckon to the silent fog

“Come see!” “Come See!” “Sing praises to God!”

Sleepy-eyed children cuddle on Mama’s lap

Coffee gives off it’s beguiling scent to say

“Awaken O Day!” to the morning song!”

“Sing Praises!” “Sing Praises!”

“Sing Praises to God!”

Walk With Me

Walk with me

Beyond our tomorrows

To a land of eternal dreams

Look at the stars, the moon,

And God’s own heaven

See the glory spread

Across the midnight sky

Walk with me through

Clouds of rain

And dewdrop shimmers

Cascading waterfalls

And moon lit seas

Walk with me

Beyond the crimson sun

Past quaking aspen

Ready for new snow

Scan the mountains

Reaching out imaginary arms

To embrace the coming day

Walk with me my love

All these wonders we can see

Arm and arm beyond our tomorrows

That still are yet to be.
