GOD’S CANVAS
While walking thru yon woods one day
I saw a deer and fawns at play
A sun bleached field with waving corn
Paying homage to the breaking morn
As sunlight dappled thru the trees
Their leaves were dancing in the breeze
The music that they seemed to hear
Is not perceptible to human ear
A pond of water mostly still
A Great White Heron with a fish in his bill
The mournful cry of a beautiful dove
Missing mate with a cry of love
These things I can hear
These things I can see
What a beautiful palette
He’s laid out for me
God is the painter that creates these scenes
From the lovely lilac to the emerald green
All shades and colors He supplies
To create the feast right before our eyes
The resplendence of color
That He shares with us
A dazzling landscape
From morning till dusk.
