Think Tank Thursday

Poets United prompt #36 Lilies of the Field.  This is our movie week, once a month, a movie is picked to
consider how to portray it's message. I love Sidney Poitier, but have not seen this movie. I do know it represents faith n' love. I wanted to tie in nature, the tests of the seasons. We are being tested, for sure this winter.  I kind of went with a higher power.


Hope hides under paradox soil,
Barren till blanket of ethereal white covers,
Quiet mud waits,
Mother Earth's angels whisper trust,
Pubescent spring swells with green pride,
Tenderness grows,
Grace notes arrive,
Old fashion traditions transcend,
Plant seeds of kindness,
Have patience accept Mother Nature's promise,
Surrender to the spirit of change,
Blood red poppies salute,
Nod to passersby,
Remember...
Blistered parched Earth waits,
Faith tested signs of trust arrive,
Cleansing the soil with hope,
Gossamer dreams invisible,
Promise of Love's union blooms,
Burning bush paints silhouetted view,
Prune back; plow ahead,
Reap what you sow,
Bountiful Thanks arrives,
Starlit birthday reminds us,
Renew our soul~
