Beautiful Moments of Joy and Peace

Sunrise

Posted on July 7, 2011 at 1:43 PM



Tiny, delicate tendrils of pink

Slowly creep across the skies

In a colorful transformation,

As the sun begins to rise.

A gentle glow spreads until

The earth is suffused with light,

As a new day dawns and the sun

Chases away the night.


This spreading pastel radiance

Signals the start of another day,

As eyes are gradually wakening

And darkness is swept away.

The beauty of this golden orb

That is rising into view

Delivers warmth and brightness

When its rays come shining through.


The radiance of God’s love

Can also fill our lives with light,

And transform inner darkness

Into a soul that’s clear and bright.

The beauty and the warmth

Of God’s presence then can start

To fill our lives with joy,

As love dawns upon each heart.

Like when the Son rises in our hearts, the sunrise each day is a reminder - for those with eyes to see - of God's grace and magnificence. Well done, this poem, Connie - a great start to my day - thanks! :-)
