Well, I had fully intended on putting my own poetry on this webpage, being that I am part of the Paris community. And at long last! here it is!!!
God looked down and said, "Beautiful." I looked around and had to agree. I saw God's creation; Every mountian, every tree. I saw wonder in billowy white clouds Aainst a clear blue sky. When God looked down and saw beauty I could understand why. God looked at me and shook his head. He looked down and again he said, "Beautiful." I looked around, then looked at Him, Asking, "Are you talking to me?" "Yes, my child," Was His Fatherly reply. "I made you beautiful, Perfect like Me. I know your life And how it shall be. I created you and know The number of hairs on your head. And so you ARE beautiful," God said. So now when I look around And see God's treasures Which once were alone, Now I am one with them; A beauty all my own. ~written 3/28/99 for V.J.C.
