Poetry
Simple Truth
I ne’er had seen a richer sky
O’er nights I gazed in wonder by
Its scattered diamonds, crescent shy
A simple truth revealed
Tho man proclaims with faithless cry
That in him only answers lie
My heart – my soul could not deny
This majesty God willed
On maps of light, their brilliance high
Did captain’s courses long rely
To think a child with hopeful sigh
Would wish upon them still
And soon across my thought did pry
A streak of light past edge of eye
As if to say, “Child, here Am I
“Your blessed heart to fill”
I knew then even if I try
To reinvent a reason why
A symphony exists there nigh
To Him I humbly yield
I ne’er had seen a richer sky
O’er nights I gazed in wonder by
Its scattered diamonds, crescent shy
A simple truth revealed
