GOD IS REAL

A garden proclaims God is real.

The infinity of shapes—
Of blades, leaves, blossoms, seeds, and petals—
Reveal the presence of the Master Designer.
The spectrum of color—
Pinks, greens, blues, reds, yellows and browns—
Declare the creativity of the Artist.
The myriad of fragrances—
Lilacs, hyacinths, roses, freshly trimmed grass—
Attest to the skill of the Perfumer;
The symphony of sound—
The songs of the birds, the whirr of insect wings, and the roar of thunder—
All point to the Great Musician.
