Where I saw Him

An original poem | A Peculiar Poet

I saw Him in the morning

When the weather turned to Fall, 

As the warm air ceased its kisses, 

And the wind brought birdsongs call. 

I saw Him in the garden 

When the flowers bloomed the best 

For He showed me space is needful, 

Should I desire better than the rest. 

I saw Him among the bergamot 

When He called the chorus wing– 

As the hummingbirds visited often, 

While the finches did sweetly sing.

I saw Him on the zinnias 

When all a-flutter all did fly, 

And the blue-sky framed the rainbow

While the butterflies danced on high.

I saw Him in the sunsets,
I saw Him in the skies, 

I saw HIm on the roads of dirt, 

I saw Him despite the lies. 

I found HIm when I sought HIm 

As I ached and shed a tear, 

I found Him fully faithful, 

When my solitude was my fear.

I saw Him every moment 

When I chose stillness over noise, 

Though I supposed it’s for this season 

So I’ll rejoice fully in these joys. 

All the while I know He’s working, 

Soon enough He’ll try my frame, 

But now I see Him in the Autumn, 

And find solace in His Good name.
