Sitting on the Deck
Strong breezes tingle, warm across my skin
Single hummingbird hovers, zooms out and in
Searching for nectar, beloved and sweet
Sun come and goes, never missing a beat
Songbird sings praise, joy, an accolade
Summer lily, yellow brightness, eventually to fade
Sounds of thunder rumble, refusing to cower
Soon a raindrop comes, nourishment yet power
Showers on earth, coming down from the sky
Simple yet complex, both nature and I
Satisfied to know the One, who created it all
Soulful and Spirit, He’s waiting for our call
