A couple poems . . . . .
Hello Ladies, :flower*

Here is a poem that I just recently wrote - thought I'd share it with you. Also a little poem that I did not write, but it is one of my favorites, I like to add it to cards or letters as a signature sort-of thing. Enjoy!

In HIM,
Faith <><

----------------------------------------------------------
Forest Reflections

A breath of evening whispers
Through the twilight and the trees,
Kissing my face as I wander,
        Through a forest by the sea.

As I walk through the ferns and the foliage,
        Hand in hand with my thoughts and my dreams,
The crickets sing me a lullaby,
        And firefly lanterns gleam.

I find a fallen tree and sit
        Upon its soft and mossy side,
The tree frogs call above me,
        And a rabbit dashes away to hide.

Gazing around at the beauty
        of the forest at close of the day,
Thanking my God for revealing
        His power in so many ways.

I am content to sit, unmoved
        As all around prepare for sleep.
The flowers nod their silky heads,
        And the birds settle down with a drowsy ‘cheep’.

Dusk is falling thickly now,
        Like a cloak of feathered down.
It wraps the woods in slumber
And turns the greens to a hazy brown.

I rise with a song of praise in my heart,
        To my Creator, Savior and King,
And leave the forest, now silent and still,
        To await what the morrow will bring.


Outwitted

He drew a circle that shut me out.
Heretic, rebel, a thing to flout!
But Love and I had the wit to win,
We drew a circle that took him in!

Wow!
Dear Faith,

I LOVE your poem (that's what the heart is for :) ) I wish I could write like that! It's like I'm *there* when I read it. Good job. I'm copying it down :)

In Christ,
