His Painting

His Painting

by louis gander

Alone, the sun rises
over people unknown.
Although they ignore it,
its sunlight is thrown,
over the river and
through the faint fog,
like lone little flowers
on top a dead log,
growing so freely,
so gentle, so bright -
as God's great creation
is seen from His light.

Some hovering noises
seem somewhat bizarre,
trespassing nature
in places afar -
while God, the Great Artist
keeps painting His way -
another day passes
just like yesterday,
when bright colored sunset
surrounds a lone loon,
reflecting on water
with bright crescent moon.

Now stars hold God's canvas
while brush strokes so grand,
paint vivid colors
with love's perfect hand.
And God - although we
cannot even imagine -
prepares us a place, in
His painting called 'Heaven'.
So things we see here
will seem dreary and gray,
compared to this painting
that'll 'blow us away'!
