    I Dance With the Stars




    AS THE EVENING SUN LIES DOWN BEHIND
    A FAR AND DISTANT HILL
    IT SIGNALS TO ME IT IS THE TIME
    TO REST AND BE STILL

    AND REFLECT ON ALL THE GOODNESS
    GOD HAS SHOWN TO ME TODAY
    AND TO THANK HIM FOR HIS MERCY
    AS SUNLIGHT TO EVENING GIVES WAY

    AS I STARE INTO THE EVENING SKY
    THE STARS SEEM TO DANCE IN DELIGHT
    REJOICING IN THEIR GOD ON HIGH
    THEIR CREATOR OF TRUTH AND MIGHT

    THEN I TOO REJOICE IN HIM
    FOR HE IS MY GOD AS WELL
    FOR HE BRIGHTENED MY WAY THAT WAS SO DIM
    AND FREED MY SOUL FROM HELL

    I JOIN THEM IN THEIR DANCE OF PRAISE
    TO THE GOD OF ETERNITY
    FOR HE LIFTED THE DARKNESS FROM MY DAYS
    AND IN LOVE HE SET ME FREE

    H. Wilson

    hello, good Christian witness. usually, however, i like to see story line in a slice. . . some very crisp images would help how do you see this? who the audience? for the Body of Christ or as a missions effort? being all caps may not be as effective as upper/lower case dean www.chapbookwriter.com

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
