ART & POETRY BY KATHY BOECHER
This is another colored pencil drawing of a peaceful place in an imaginary world. There are many of these locations swirling in my head from time to time. The best place to spend time is in God’s creation.
A great expanse of brilliant blue,
Interspersed with misty clouds of purple, mauve and gold,
Within the space beyond our imagination,
Heaven waits,
Time passes,
We live,
We flourish,
We make our mark,
And then we die,
But it isn’t over,
God’s mighty hand reaches out of the expanse,
Hangs tightly to yours and leads you,
To eternity,
To peace,
Fulfillment,
Satisfaction,
There will be no more tears,
No more sadness,
Only joy will fill our hearts,
The sky is the ladder that leads to heaven,
What glory we shall behold.
Touch me, Oh Lord, and through that sweet sensation,
May peace come through Your Word, and quiet contemplation.
You hold me in Your precious wings, my spirit now does soar.
With you, Lord my sick heart now sings, your name I will adore.
THANK YOU, JESUS, FOR ANOTHER DAY!
