Wales' Tales


The signs of spring are all around,
The birds, the trees, the sun,
The promise of a changing scene,
New life has just begun.
The wind has changed,
The sky more blue
The world begins to wake,
To shed the cloak of winter drear,
Another road to take.
And with the coming of the spring
We find a new resolve,
A chance to grow and try new paths
Around which we revolve.
This is the time to take a breath
And smell the zest of life,
For winter’s gray has gone away,
And with it all our strife,
We need not fight the ice and snow,
Nor fear the northern blast,
The heat of summer is not far,
The cold is in the past.
Yet if you travel this small orb
For many years along,
You realize that this is life,
An old familiar song.
The highs, the lows, the heat , the cold
Is part of God’s great plan,
A rhythm that reflects truth
Of when this world began.
It comes a gift from God’s good grace,
Its pace was set in time.
And when we understand that truth,
We also see God’s rhyme.
We live within the ebb and flow,
A plan that does not cease,
We just enjoy these gracious gifts,
Immersed in God’s sure…
