I Spy

IMG_3975.JPG
I spy with my little eye, His Presence and His Plan,
Grace and time fulfilling, sweet favour here descends.
With unassuming entrance, as raindrops kiss the land,
He revives the broken spirit, by word and healing hand.

Lost & Found

IMG_5081.JPG
Lose your way with Me, in this forest, let us be,
Earth, its gentle stirring, wind whistling through the trees.
The flowers send their greetings, leaves, they waltz so free,
In silence, faithful keeping, come, find yourself in Me.
~ D.F.

Rest

IMG_5052-0.JPG
Lisping in the wind, the sound of silent prayer,
Ferrying her tears, seeking the One who cares.
In that quiet hideaway, the trials of life to spare,
A sigh, the final resting, at last, all things made fair.
~ D.F.

Words

IMG_4113.JPG
Hold unto His Words, let them take you on a ride,
Beyond the highest mountains, where angels and saints abide.
There shall Peace be sown from the stores of His own light,
Downward through to earth, as the dew drops take to flight.
~ D.F.

Chameleon

IMG_5004.JPG
Blend me in, creation find, colours and hues, come rain or shine,
The changing light, its lows and highs, trusting all the world is Thine.
With ready tongue, my turret eyes, blessings caught, how sweet, divine!
Morning rise and evening sigh, Your watchful gaze, Life’s grand design.
~ D.F.

Blood Brothers

IMG_1857.JPG
The child, he walks among us, no guile or false pretence,
Looking for that someone, with whom life’s game to tend.
A friend to last the seasons, to walk with, boldly stand,
Their journey so beginning, as brothers, rule the land.
~ D.F.

Naked

IMG_4967.JPG
Behold me in my nakedness, darkness, plain to see,
Wrong and sin, misgivings, none are hid from Thee.
Flickering in the trying wind, quick, then set me free,
Extinct this lowly flame of mine, now to Your mercy flee.
~ D.F.

Summer Chic

IMG_4937.JPG
Dancing in the sun, see her soaking in the heat,
Candy for the eye, oh what a dose of summer chic.
Dress so softly flowing, how form and function meet,
An air of sweet seduction, come worship at her feet.
~ D.F.

River Wild

IMG_4939.JPG
Take me down this river wild, my fainting heart to lead,
Diving into treacherous turns, all at a breakneck speed.
Then find in me, a trusting soul, the rapids bravely meet,
Life with all its twists and feigns, to faith and courage cede.
~ D.F.
