Nature's Power (19 months ago)

The weather is finally turning
And sunshine is warming days
The birds are singing joyously
And Easter is on its way
Another season edging in
This one all about renew
I'm sad to go to bed alone
And wake up that way too
When I realize that at ANY GIVEN time
NO ONE knows where I am
It's strange to know that I'm THAT alone
So then. . .loneliness sets in too
I drove tonight to chase the sun
As it settled beyond the view
Tears were rolling down furious
I couldn't stop them if I'd tried
Music I did turn up loud
To fill my analyzing mind
The power of reality
Sometimes rips my facade right down
So I let the tears roll their way
Hoping to pass through my blues

I turned my car around ...
The sun now gone from view
I drove right back the way I came
And startled at the view!!!
God came to hold me tight
And help me get on through!!!
Across the hills of heartland scape
The moon began her rise
I had to stop my car
As my breath it took away
Ten times its normal size
Shadowed all in pink
As it sat for only seconds
On a hill hoizoned far
My eyes could not believe the magic
My heart swallowed it all in
I know now God knows I'm here
He pushed me to this drive tonight
He put on a show of transformation
That "AWESOME" can't even describe

Spectacular; unimaginable to dream
More beautiful than I've ever seen
This ball that lights the night
Rises before my eyes
Times ten it's normal size!!
As if a shadow and in all pink!!
Amber it turns, lifting up off the hill
Then shrinking, it turns white
In fullness, perfect round
There's a face upon it too
I may not have that human love
The kind that wraps you up
Secures you in happiness
And knows where all you go
But I have the gift of God
His nature and His show
It may not fill my hunger
For a man and gentle touch
But if fills me with a wonder
That a man could never touch

Yes, I lay down many a night
Parched for someone's love
And wake so many morns
Dehydrated from knowing want
So I look to God for His sweet gift
Thankful that He gave me sight
It is the power of nature
That keeps me falling in love
