Harmony :)

(Inspired by time on the lake, reflections of some of His Words, with the trees in fall splendor, surrounded by jazz and symphonic gifts)

10/31/2005

Cool air on our faces; a blue dome so bright

Trees of gold and orange in autumn’s sunlight

A rainbow of sounds floats on the breeze

Toe-thumping jazz and graceful melodies

We smile and nod at the young ones so sweet,

We know how they’ve prepared—

And now, what a treat!

The volume’s turned up when the jazzers come

They make us laugh with bob and beat fun

And all this so wonderful is only a picture

Of real notes and sounds

Made by brother and sister

The Musicians within and those that surround,

Each life is a facet of the Orchestra’s sound

A thousand notes will ring out every day

Are they tuned to the Master’s—the only true A?

If so, they will be harmonies of delight

If dissonant they are, chords of fright!

But our Conductor is faithful—and patient, too!

He’ll work with each one ‘til the melody’s true!

Then His Opus we’ll be

His Song, in us, set free!
