The Symphony

An ode to the Creator bellows throughout the world, 
never ceasing in its magnifying worship.
From every corner of the earth comes a symphony to be 
carried on the wings of angels.
Can you hear it?
The winds whisper their love, waters hum with joy,
creatures sing their sweet melodies in awe 
and the celestial beings proclaim God's glory.
From every note floating through the Heavens comes a rejoicing dance.
Can you see it?
The percussion rhumbas, the winds tango, and the strings waltz 
with such captivating grace not even an angel could follow their lead.
Vibrations pulsate forth from these magnificent melodies and harmonies 
with unforgettable power.
Can you feel it?
The soft and strong pulses of worship ring throughout the earth, 
shattering all sadness and doubt.
Resounding zeal of the Lord is contagious in its movement of souls. 
The rhythms of grace and glory have no restrictions.
The symphony of the universe praises God in all His creations.
Through His creations, Let the symphony ring true!

In You

Acquaintances at first, never giving another thought
Little did we know we had the other's attention caught
With Time fleeting, our friendship, flourished with illuminating hue
And in you I found the ingredients of one that's true
As cascading waters descend elegantly upon nature's path
So does Heaven's rejoicing love to strengthen our bonds like a lath
Surprises will be revealed as fate removes life's mimicry
For in you I have a best friend for all eternity.
