The Contentment of His Creation
He sends comfort
during lonely tribulation,
distractions:
His powerful billows
gently dab the firmaments,
forming whimsy caricature;
He waves mystery's handiwork,
displays feathers & frond.
His angels stand cornered
offering wind
only at His direction
teasing hints, done
in fragrant wildflower.
He soothes tormented ears
in auditions of sparrow,
cricket & frog;
boasting His pure galleries
in precious, brilliant, song.
ORIGINAL
True Beauty
He sends comfort
in lonely tribulation,
creating distraction:
His firmaments
daub in powerful billows,
forming softened
whimsy caricatures;
His handiwork
displays a mystery
found only in feathers & frond.
Directing windy offerings
of cornered angels
teasing in hints
of sweetened honeysuckle
& wild carrots
crocheted in blooms of white,
He soothes
tormented ears
with the auditions
of sparrows,
crickets & frogs;
boasting purest galleries
in precious, brilliant, song.
