He laces the moon with winter trees
across a purple sky
bringing forth a cool night breeze
that beckons hopeful eyes.


The majesty of God's own craft
is a beauty beyond compare
a miracle for all to have
and a gift that always shares.


No hands of man can make this art
that God has painted ever true
each brilliant stroke He does impart
creates an original for all to view.


Yes, He laces the moon with winter trees
across a purple sky
etching beauty for all to see
that beckons hopeful eyes.

  1. Great to think of God as artist as well as creator. I wish we could be adjusted to keeping the gallery vital rather than left to the next global melt, flood, firestorm.
