Every morning,
the Artist wets His
brush to begin
another masterpiece.
At the first sign of light,
He paints the skies
with pastel hues:
periwinkle and lavender.
His palette spills
dew on the flowers,
coating them with
these vibrant tints.
The day blossoms;
when the wind blows,
the petals dry, and
His sun brightens them.
With the heat of noon,
the flowers slowly fade
and start to curl up
like dried-up foliage.
With the setting sun
the day withers away
but His grace will be
renewed tomorrow,
blooming again with
His infinite glory.

Every morning,
the Artist wets
His brush to begin
another masterpiece.
At the first sign of light,
He paints the skies
with pastel hues:
periwinkle and lavender.
His palette spills dew
on the flowers,
coating them with
these vibrant tints.
The day blossoms;
when the wind blows,
the petals dry, and
His sun enlivens them.
With the heat of noon,
the flowers slowly fade
and start to curl up
like dried-up foliage.
With the setting sun,
the day withers away
like rusted memories
collecting on the ground.
But His grace will be
renewed tomorrow,
blooming again with
His infinite glory.
