SERENITY

SERENITY

Serenity is a butterfly
flying high in the sky
Serenity is a gentle wind
that slowly brushes by
Serenity is a quiet moon
on a dark and starry night
Serenity is a fall leaf
you see floating from the sky
Serenity is a stillness
walking slowly down a wooded trail
Serenity is a mountain stream
or a tiny child by the ocean with a pail
Serenity is the chirping of a bird in the early morn,
Serenity is the first glimpse of a child that is born
Serenity is listening to the ocean waves rolling in,
Serenity is just sitting and taking the beautiful moments in
Serenity is God's whisper
in the stillness of your day
To capture the beauty of a world
if we stop and pay attention, we will hear him say
"Be Still, be quiet, take a moment to take it in,
Don't hurry, stop rushing, love each other, life is brief,
slow down, take it in"


Job 12:7 "But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds of the air, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish of the sea inform you."
