ICICLE TREES
 

                      Early dawn....surprises to delight....
                     Icicle trees....to my left and my right!
                      Crystal coated....so crisp and clear!
                     The prettiest objects, viewed this year!
                 As if GOD had been busy, all through the night!
              Dipping branches and limbs, in liquid glass, so bright!
                Warmer weather will make them disappear soon,
                  My icicle trees will not greet the new moon!
                    But, icicle trees will live on, in my mind,
                   Filled with other spectacular scenes, so fine,
                      Years of awesome spiritual delights,
                  So easily captured...these miraculous sights!
                   GOD takes each common, ordinary thing,
                  Adds elegant touches...makes tiny birds sing!
              HIS universal symphony, of colour, shape and sound,
                 Burst on the scene....making everything around,
                  Glow, with HIS special, supernatural touch,
                      I look!  I listen!...I like it so much!!
