I spent yesterday morning outside because I heard the already cold temps were going to nose-dive for the next few days, again! They were right!
There are no pictures on these walls
Yet everywhere we look
The awesome artwork of Someone
Fills every rill and nook
The floors are laid with carpet rare
White plush or lush leaf-green
And we are drawn to linger where
The air is sweet and keen
No clock to tick and tock or mock
No rigid rules intone
Here Worship needs no noise of talk
In nature’s pantheon
…and we are welcome, one and all
Into this holy place
To wander slow, its tree-lined hall
Or gaze on heaven’s face
For nothing else can quite compare
In workmanship or fame
To creation’s Cathedral where
Earth shouts her Master’s Name
