A Different Shade

Paula Louise Shene

Almighty God in His wisdom

 

Decided on a colorful prism

Infinite palette to splash His hues

Found In Man, beast, and scenic views

From the snowy white Polar caps

Equator melting temps in Andes gaps

Rust colored cliffs covered with bushes and trees

Every one shedding and regrowing vivid green leaves

Nature in harmony with God’s jars of brush

Tones set to vibrate when fronds turn lacy lush

 

Shades from loam to Emerald and all between

Hot colors, warm, pale, and cold, all shimmer gleam

Apricot to Cantaloupe to the deepest of red/

Dios has the eye to see shade woven thread

Eternal God bestows to each child spirit seed

Gifts boundless, opening hearts to love’s need
