SPRING – THE REBIRTH OF THE CREATION.. WDM 2018
The grass is growing, the trees sprouting leaves and the days are now sunny.
Bees are humming and gathering nectar to make honey.

Oh, to be in Texas
Now that spring is there,
With bluebonnets and daffodils
And golden sunbeams in her hair.
White dogwoods glisten
In greenland shade,
And redbuds add color
To woodland glade.
Robins, and redbirds,
And sparrows sing
Their joyous thanksgiving,
To every living thing.
The lakesides glisten
With minnow schools,
While tadpoles frolic
In shallow pools.
As the light fades slowly
In the west,
And Mother Earth puts
Her brood to rest
All ...

THE LOOKING GLASS
When I realize how my life’s been spent
Making a self-image for the world to see,
And how that picture has now been rent
By God’s assessment of what makes me, me,
I am confounded and undone
As truth refutes my view.
In vanity I have believed a lie,
And in conceit, I tried to pass it on to you.
Now, ...
