INSTRUMENTS OF LOVE

Love is a drum,
That beats for you.
Because her heart is yours.

Love is a cello
The chords, a reminder
Of the chilling ups and downs.

Love is a flute
Whose sounds beg,
A desperation for mutuality

Love is a cymbal
Bashing out her frustrations
Wanting to be wanted,

Love is a harmonica
A summer’s picnic,
She brings to mind.

Love is a violin
Vulnerable to you,
More moods than a chameleon

Love is a piano
Telling the story
Of a life-long proposal

Love is an instrument,
She is a song, a melody played.
Praying that you will be moved.

I Saw God

 

Pictures taken during my stay in Oslo

I saw God,

He approached me at the shoreline

Gently and calmly,

He tickled my toes

And He and I locked in an embrace,

As I awed in paradise.

 

I saw God,

At the mountain top, as he arched the sky

Colourful and a delightful sight,

He brought me joy

And he taught me gratitude

As my senses narrated the creation story.

 

I saw God,

As he fed the greens

Pitter patter, drop by drop,

Till each had their share,

Though thunder roared and lightning struck,

He reminded me to seek the light in the dark.

 

I saw God,

As He peered over my Grandma,

He held her hand and finally gave her rest

Although I cried as I would miss her dearly,

He made sure to give me comfort,

When she smiled her last and parted with Him

 

I saw God,

On the day of my matrimony.

The angels rejoiced, and He beamed all day

My soulmate, long promised, stared in my eyes

And I saw a love so pure, that signified my forever.

The right time had come in glory everlasting.

 

I’ve seen the Lord,

And I see Him each day.

When the sun rises, and reclines for the moon,

When the trees dance as hit by the breeze,

God is ever present, ever loving,

God is nature, God is love.
