Joy Unbound by Susan L.

The Lord's laughter is in the trees As they cavort and rustle in the wind, Tickling Heaven's belly. His merriment squeaks in the chirping crickets As they sing to the day In search of love and life eternal. Muffled giggles flutter in the soft beat Of a butterfly's wings While they dance among the flowers Drinking the sweetness of being. A chuckle is teased from His lips By the raucous nonsense of geese As they splash and squabble in the water. Gales of utter abandon swoop In the shrieks and gleegul cries Of children as they, too, Splash and squabble in the water. A harmony of life. The Lord's soft and muted pleasure Is wrapped in dulcet tones of lovers As they embrace His love for them. His silent mirth reverberates In the warm company of good friends As they share a quiet time. Everywhere rings with the pure Clear tones of Heaven's Joy-- For our joy is in the listening Closely and hearing Our Father's pleasure. 09/07
