ART & POETRY BY KATHY BOECHER©

Today is the last day of spring, so I thought I’d post a few of my watercolor flowers as a send off to the coming season. God has blessed us with four distinct seasons. Each one has its own beauty, challenges and glory. Thank you, Jesus, for giving us each day to look forward to and each breath you give us to enjoy your bounty.

A misty, early morning dawns, among the bales of hay,

New life appears and spreads its wings to welcome in the day,

The atmosphere with crystal glow is dusting every bale,

With morning mist and precious dew, with love it does avail,

A tranquil breeze, a breath from God, exhales as it inspires,

Awakening every living thing, each flower He attires,

With beauty far beyond our view, with colors never seen,

He gives new life to everything and gives it pure and clean,

A drowsy doe arises and sees the waiting feast,

That lingers in the misty morn, to soothe the savage beast,

A bounty there beyond her scope, to last her for the day,

There’s more than she can handle, but that won’t get in her way,

A damp and misty early morn, among the bales of hay,

Where living things will wander and in its bounty play.
