On Mornings Such as These

         On Mornings Such as These
On mornings such as these I look up above
And give praise to my Savior ,my Shepherd ,my Dove.
On mornings such a these in the beauty and calm
I reverently thank my Creator,my Father ,my Balm.

The world has been made clean with a dusting of snow
And the rays of the sun give a heavenly glow,
The trees stand sprinkled in a sparkle of white
The ground lies frosted from the night's chilly bite.
So still,as if the earth has not yet awoke,
So peaceful ,as if the Master has spoke:
"Just be in the minute ,don't miss it my child,
It's a gift I am giving ,so blessed ,so mild.
Keep still and just be ,nothing is forever,
Soon the world will awake and nature will gather.
The birds will come calling on wings all a flitter ,
Silence will be broken with tweets,chirps and twitter."
This frozen,bright masterpiece that lays in my reach
Will soon be gone with a lesson to teach.
When such beautiful gifts from the Lord come to me
I must quickly unwrap them as I sit with my tea.
