the promise
wrapped within
your soft skin
of petals.
Knowing
your future
unfurled
becomes
a gift
of pure beauty.
This moment
this morning
grateful for
this blessing
of your
precious favor.

Very nice Richard. I love the colors of the bud and the green against the black background. Nice poem, enjoyed the mental break at the end of my day.

ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind compliments.
I truly felt God's favor in that magical moment of silence.

What special moment. I missed this one back in August of 2012!
ReplyDeleteSantiago:
ReplyDelete"This Moment" is one of my all-time favorite poems. Probably because I did feel His "precious favor". During the capture of the photographs; and again during the writing of the poem. Soon, I will post a series of my own favorite poems into one post.
