I Don't Want To Miss You





I don’t want to miss
The way You tip the sky
And pour earth full of color
After slumber’s charcoal sigh

You spill all around us
A still-life madrigal
And I don’t want to miss
Its wonder-bliss free-fall

...how it can pour
Like a holy shower
And drip from the edges
Of leaf and flower

Haste steals the taste
Of worship from my tongue
Where miracle-petals
Of mercy are flung

And I don’t want to miss
Being utterly awed
In a world of Masterpieces
Signed, yours truly, God

Happy Weekend. May it be filled with wonder/worship !
