Wind Romancing Trees

Starting off 2008 with a little something I wrote on New Year's Day 2007...


Tonight the wind blew strong. The leaves on the trees danced in the moonlight.

When I reached home tonight I sat in my car for an hour.
Windows down. Hair blowing about.
Listening. To the wind. Talking to the trees.
And the leaves sang back with excitement.

I was witnessing a different kind of romance. Nature's romance. God's creation.
All for me to drink in and breathe out.

The wind. The trees. Though they speak in a different language...
I stayed. I listened. And I heard.

God speaks to us in many voices. We just have to open our ears and listen for it.

So tonight, God will sing me to sleep and romance me in my dreams.
All with His orchestra of wind, leaves, and trees.

God's shared expressions... voiceless.






Yet I can still hear Him.
