  • Trees of Praise

    I just found this poem I wrote on our honeymoon a few years ago, which I wrote in my Palm Pilot as we were driving around...

    trees
    ever-stretching before us,
    vast and wide, a multitude
    unending, surrounding,
    around, all around us.

    arms
    outstretched to heaven
    giving praise, pouring out the gratitude that spills from the depths of our souls to
    the Maker who brought us together to this place.

    rivers
    stretching, winding, wrapping around sandpoints, the foot of mountains –
    miles of glass, mirrors of, reflections of,
    the trees of praise.

    25 miles an hour --

    a quiet town
    sleeps, sits, stands, settles without hurry, whispers
    praise to the God of all creation who speaks in magnified magnificence to all who pass through --
