spiritual sounds fill the fresh air,
tinkling my soul like crystal wind chimes,
blowing in breezes without a care.
By dawn's early light the earth is still,
my soul whispers gentle words of peace,
daybreak is dancing to warm the chill,
powerful prayer brings sweet release.
In this solitude my spirit soars,
to a plateau above my worries,
sunlight sifts through as the ocean roars,
a world apart where no soul hurries.
Relaxation fills my core being,
calmness comes to collect my senses,
eyes wide shut to look without seeing,
blinding out all worldly offenses.
To ponder on His amazing ways,
lifts me from dark and dangerous mire,
times of the past are now bygone days,
this new dawning sets my soul on fire.
Yesterday's trials have left me now,
after a night of breathing God's grace,
mercy drifts by and takes her low bow,
to soften this morning's gentle pace.
Slowly I rise to fall to my knees,
once more I will pray for His blessing,
sure in my faith He will hear my pleas,
I hear His still voice so caressing.
His words to me are smooth as silver,
to recall to mind my darkest night,
He was there to save and deliver,
when wings of tender mercies took flight.
A spiritual happening transpires,
my soul is awash with grateful tears,
Jesus appears to put out old fires,
and chase away my lingering fears.
These are the ways of my sanity,
a calmness gently overtakes me,
I live and breath Christianity,
as the sun rises over the sea.

This blessed me and touched my soul.
I had tears flowing as I read this magnificent poem that was beautiful, peaceful, and a witness to His amazing love.
Clearly one of the most beautiful poems I've read in some time, and amongst the top ten favorites so far.
I felt the Holy Spirit moving throughout this powerful piece.
I' sure it'll touch many hearts this week.
Keep shining His light and writing for His glory.
God bless you~
