Love Letter

    God sent a letter down to me,
    I read it with humility.
    His golden seal, rose with the sun,
    proclaiming morning had begun;
    While feathered clouds in script trailed by
    like cursive writing through the sky.
    All day I read it word for word,
    each lovely leaf, and passing bird--
    A silent language for mankind,
    His gentle whisper to my mind.
    When dusk arrived there was no doubt
    I felt His presence all about.
    He said good night, and turned to close--
    With stars for X's, planets O's.
