Louisville

Grace

Cool, swift and wide, I long to be at your side

I slip down to your shore, 
where my cares shall be no more

throwing my earthly worries to the breeze

I pray to God as I fall on my knees

"Dear Lord, bless us all..."
  large, tall, meek and small

"grant us peace, wisdom and grace

til the day we meet face to face"

Peace Like a River
When You Don't Know What to Pray: How to Talk to God about Anything

Stubborn in Nature

Snowdrops, Tulips and Jonquils
Sensing warmth they long to feel
Pushing forth towards the light
Breaching earth, an upwards fight
Mother Nature's loving devotion
Soon will summon Springs warming motion
Streams frozen fast, icy cold and hard
Reliquinsh slowly, giving up winters guard
Stubborn in nature, like a dogged pup
Tender green leaves are forever popping up
Warm, gentle days are their great reward
Whilst winter surrenders in quiet discord

Merry Christmas World
