The Changing Sky I watch the changing sky and see Such gifts of love for you and me. At sunrise, sunset, the colors flare And every hue is captured there. The rainbows coming after rain, Draw our eyes towards God again. He sends us clouds of every kind And some leave fog or snow behind, But all are necessary for The climate, stretching shore to shore And sea to sea, the world around. There is no place where clouds aren't found. We always look for skies of blue To plan our day and when we do, Our spirits lift.We take each day With thanks for what God sends our way. I check each morn when I arise To see the grandeur of the skies! Betty Lou Hebert [This message has been edited by Trillium (05-18-2002 11:50 PM).] |

Joyce: Thanks for responding. You're right about the skies setting the pace of our days. I look out to see what the day will be like, at 5:00 a.m. every morning, although it quite often changes in a hurry! Betty Lou Hebert |

What a great poem... you CAN see God's promises all written in the sky, even the ones unspoken that He always has our best interests at heart even though the getting there is not necessarily of our own chosing. I enjoyed this one a lot. Sherry Cherish the good memories past and look forward to the adventure called Tomorrow. |
