With Life Anew

by louis gander
3/31/2018 / Salvation

Like Eden's garden, park was still.
A perfect place right up until -
the selfish played.

The lake was smooth, as smooth as glass -

but then a breeze came rolling past -

as they all played.

A dark cloud seemed to push the breeze

that whispered firmly to the leaves -

while they had played.

Then all the grasses wiggled too

and seemed to toy with breeze that blew -

as they had played.

A couple squirrels in a tree.

First I saw two, then I found three -

and they had played.

A couple toads jumped stone to stone.
Together, they were not alone -
and they had played.

Some floating leaves rose with each wave.

First up, then down, they'd misbehave -

as they had played.

We all endured the passing wind

that we had felt while others sinned -

when they had played.

And when the winds had caught my ear,

the storms of certain wrath were near -

while they had played.

The wrath of God was imminent

but habits fixed, were like cement -

so they still played.

The storm clouds, close, were now a threat -

but not a drop had fallen yet -

so still they played.

Then suddenly, a lightning blast -

brought thunder's roar and down-burst fast! -

so wet they played.

Unfaithful ones, now surely stuck,
were washed away in mudslide's muck.
T'was overdue...

But faithful ones above the sod

had found down-pouring grace from God

...with life anew.
