Spring Has Sprung



Spring Has Sprung


a continuation of Change Is Coming


by Steve Cope


a CPCCC Collab


03-27-2009

 

Chimes making music in the wind


Can bring a smile to anyones face.


Gentle winds softly carressing my skin


I can but fall to my knees in awe akin


 


To a rapturous experience. The pace


Does build and my mind it does race.


I can feel the very fiber of the earth.


I want to sing a song with glee and mirth.


 


Leaves swirling with the dust devil that just blew in


Nature's dandruff in my hair


The sky filled with little flecks of gold in the sunlight


And the tinging of the chimes brings a feeling of such delight.


 


Oh gee, oh my gosh, could it be? I feel happy!


Change has come and spring has sprung,


The rains they are pouring down and the old is becoming new.


As I tumble in love with you end over end, with Rhonda dew.


 


Oh the earth, the sky, the moon and the stars


All have a new sheen about them, even the old beat up cars.


The lions, the tigers, and the bears, oh me!


Sauntering too and fro with their prides, cubs, and babies for all to see.


 


Stars twinkle in the heavens like winking eyes

The beauty of it all leaves my heart sighing .


How awesome, oh how marvelously pleasing


Is the change that has come over one and all.


 


Change is coming, it once was said and here now it be.


True it is there are still many hints of old man winter,


But as time goes by and the world ticks on over, you will see


The blossoms and the blooms will become new live and leaves and tree!


 


Change has come and it is our joy to see


The end of one season and the beginning of another.


It is how God planned it and in His perfect economy


Here and now it can officially be said, that Mother


 


Nature has heeded the words and stepped into the fore


Ready to blow the world away with March winds,


April Showers, May flowers, and June brides and bugs too!


Oh spring has sprung and what can it be, it appears that I am happy?


 


As deep as the ocean as wide as the sea
Love goes far deeper than skin
Please don't confuse me with my twin
It floats in our hearts and hovers above our souls within


And the season is upon us for new things to blossom


For new thing to bloom and old things to be renewed.


Oh darn, I forgot my AARP.


Oh well it'll come around again and then it will be as new as spring!


 


Change has come and Jesus is still the same


His love for us keeps Him forever interceeding for our name.


At the throne of God, He does petition, He does plea


Father forgive them, for they are my bleoved and you must surely see


 


In them the glee and the optimism that appears to be growing.


They sense that something has changed, and looking at the calendar


Oh now the know that change has come and their hope is bearing


Fruit. Haste be the angels dashing here and there, even up to Hallendar.


 


Everything is new and the chimes are making music in the air.


The wind is singing a refrain oh so clear, to the Spring we now must repair.


Thank You Lord for a renewed vigor, hope, and life


And if for but a day we can leave aside all the strife.


 


The Spring has come and to Austin we did drive


To see my star and her brother too, the Dynamic Duo from Cali.


Rhonda was there making it all complete for you see this spring a dream came true.


I get to say "I saw Amanda and Travis Marsh in concert." With Rhonda at my side my happiness is complete.


 


Spring has sprung.


Change has come.


Dreams have come true,


And Jesus, you must know loves you!


 


Thanks to the collabers who helped me continue Change Is Coming and cap it off with Spring Has Sprung.

Cookie Cutter


A Full Moon Thursday Picture Challenge 02-26-2009

Cookies are delicious

On the run or standing

Over the oven sneaking a bite.

Keeping one for your lady love

Is a romantic interlude, tis true.

Every bite and nibble precious.

 

Cookie for you, one for me too,

Unbeleivably warm and

Tasty, what more does one need?

Two glasses of milk please,


Even if it is a dirty glass, it's okay.

Right about now all you need is a

 

Cookie Cutter and a sheet pan. and soon you will have dessert in the round.

Copenator out!

TheExecutive

The Executive

by Steve Cope

A Legacy Writers Wednesday Poet/Poetess Challenge

02-18-2009

The Pryncessa Divine was an artist, poetess and one

Heck of a good person all around.  But did you know her

Educational goals were business related?

Every day, can you imagine, Pryncessa strolling into the office

'Xecuting executive orders with the greatest of 

Ease and flashing her smile that stops the world for a moment.

Capturing those she leads with the desire to push higher and further.

Unparalleled would her career be for she knew how 

To pursue a goal when it was presented.

In the experience of your servant in Christ, there was

Very little of that side she mentioned for her true calling in my mind was the

Ever amazing art and poetry she produced from her heart and soul.

and now unfortunately

The Executive has been silenced in life but her voice lives on in the memories and pictures she left behind on myspace and other venues she frequented while she loved her world and grew in her skills.



Serving Him by serving you

Copenator out,

servant in Christ.

His Servant Ministries.
