A simple gift
Psalm 126:5
5 Those who plant in tears
will harvest with shouts of joy.
Flowers in the sunshine … crying in the mist
Absorbing joy and grief in their day of existence
An everlasting rhyme … a moment to exist
to bring me peace ... with natural persistence
A simple gift of God for my enjoyment
A simple reminder when death knocks at the door
Beauty I forgot ... in my bereavement
To remove the blinders and lift me of the floor
Without complaining ... they labor in their beauty
To brighten my day a bit ... and I seem to ignore it
Simply proclaiming that people can be futile
And there is more to life ... than just to adore it
