Gardens From God

 I pass this field every day this week as I deliver and pick up the girls from  Son-shine Club.

From rivers of blue-strife decking hapless hillsides

Or frolic of flea-bane fringing pasture-lane

From chicory oceans and poppy percussion

God fills His gardens with heaven’s refrain

Cone-flower canticle, daydreaming daisies

Shimmer of clover, gaudy golden-rod

Anemone ambling and wild-roses rambling

Glimmering glimpses of laughter from God

Ballerina bracken blowing in bronzed breezes

Blue-bell breathed ballads and star-flower grace

Purple amaranthus and sumac-spun splendor

Or fine alabaster of fair Queen Ann’s Lace

Dance on the meadow of miracle-chassis

Lavender love-songs festoon solemn sod

Worship the One who flings floral oasis

Over the landscape in gardens from God

I love this time of year when God's gardens grow wherever they are planted!
