Friday, April 17, 2020 The Truest Most Beautiful Sounds

Never before
Have I truly heard
the songs of birds.

But in a world
Of cacophonous sounds,
Obfuscations and lies,

Their sweet warblings,
Raucous cawings,
Cheery whistlings,
Glad chirpings,
Comical honkings,
And shy cheepings,

Might be the truest
And most beautiful sounds I hear all day.
They cannot lie, nor deceive.
Nor can evil be found in their mouths.

O God of my salvation,
How I long for the day
When I, too, will sing true words
Out of a true heart,
All day long and into eternity.

And what joy there will be
when the only sounds I hear
Will be the beautiful songs of the Singer.
Hallelujah!

I’ll probably delete this in the morning.

  1. Lynnie, Lynn, Lynn! A wonderful, heartfelt poem! I have made a copy for my collection – with your authorship noted, of course. I, too, long for that Day when “I will sing true words out of a true heart, all day long and into Eternity”… Thanks for sharing your talent and inspiration!
