Clouds

[Edie Antoinette]

You wrap me up in cotton candy, Lord.
swirling gently in a heavenly bed..
while your breezes sweet,
sing melodies of eons of time
gone by..and whisper eons more ahead.

You give me taffy apple'd hugs of love
and freshly roasted peanuts of joy..
lemonade dripping from your expanse
mixed with laughter from above..


Oh, do not take, from my happy heart
this cherished ride on the stars
Ferris Wheels powered by your embrace
and under your big tent nere' shall I part..


Yes, you surround me with incomparably
sweet cotton candy, Dear Lord..
It just floats and glides in the sky
Reminding me of this life so fair
and the treats you so graciously supply.

Awww, sweet Baby D ♥ Please know how very precious I find your words. It lifts me to the heights and beyond. I always want to fly up to heaven and hug our God around his neck. Look what he gave us...*sigh*

I never really saw the clouds until I saw myself. Then one evening as I sat peacefully on a hillside, I saw the beauty that was always there. The beauty that I had been missin' for so long. I looked upward with different eyes. I looked at everything in a new way. Somthing behind by eyes had changed.
