PICTURE THE SCENE!


Consider talents God imparts,
What treasures lie ahead,
Should artists blessed with brand new hearts
Just follow where they're led...
Let there be light! Picture the scene!
Choose colours bold and brave,
No more to see all trees as green,
Once given eyes of faith...

For there are creatures on this Earth
That take Man's breath away!
It takes the artists of true worth
To sketch without delay...
Portray the meerkat and macaw,
The tiger in his prime!
Perhaps to paint a hundred more?
Such artists sound sublime...

Each tiny passport brings new hope,
When artists choose to roam,
New countries spread across the globe,
Beyond both hearth and home...
What on Earth could match God's rainbows?
What's left that could astound?
What wonders wait? God only knows
The beauty He wants found...


Denis Martindale August 2017.
