by Sweet Meadows I love;
Green, wispy, long-haired carpets
dotted with yellow, pink and white:
design of God.
Bird chorus in bush and tree –
a sweet backdrop
to this scene of grasses
bending in the wind
and singing in the sun.
As I sit, my soul
moved and soothed
by the vision of
my Creator’s Hand.
Where hidden are a
million little creatures
working in soil and seed.
Some seen, some buzz
seeking the nectar of life.
Butterfly comes to
tell us of change,
of the metamorphosis
where the old melts
and the new is born,
radiant and gentle.
The meadow is a teacher
as well as a healer.
Sit and seek,
feel and find
the deep and widening Love
that flows through
its shadows
and secrets.
Of a meadow
sweet and giving,
Truth- telling
of the place made for us.
This home,
this earth,
this wonder
of who made it for us.
Thank the sweet meadow
for showing us
God.
