"Creator > Creature"

 

Birds blurt out their bountiful praise

To Creator and Provider for all of their days

Winds weave together His wondrous ways

Whispering His righteousness that sets us ablaze

Rustling the leaves that thunder as waves

Unmistakably blatant Whose beauty it imitates

Boundless blessings at the breadth of His hand

His luminosity layers the length of the lands

O' towering Cedars, stand so strong, yet rooted by the One Who loves

Ants aerate soils saturated by showers

Commanded in correspondence with substantial promises and power

Barking and bending to The One who lives

The bouncing of branches and twisting of twigs

Substantiating His sweetness in sways

The plopping of leaves proclaiming His name

Bees bumble and buzz "Believe! Believe!"

Putting into motion fruits received

Succumb to His pruning, Thy will be done

Love the LORD, daughters and sons

    "Creator > Creature" was the second poem I was inspired to write. I originally had a different idea, but it changed course upon further inspiration; although it is one I may experiment with in the future. After I had originally started, writers block was present so I was somewhat stuck on the concluding touches. 

    I may be inspired to write down a couple of lines at a time, or draft a general idea. Typically I jot down what The Lord places on my heart at that moment of time. Mostly writing the original idea in the notes app where it will likely simmer for a bit until the necessary finishing touches are added.

    Only on rare occasions of boredom do I spend time free writing (typing) any poetry, but I may plan to practice that more in the future. The aspect that consumes most of the drafting process is spent remixing/tweaking them to depict the ideas hopefully more effectively or encourage better flow. For this specific poem it kind of unified itself after spending some time in the backyard after a workout. The mixture of trees, wind, clouds, sun and sky working in unison caused the lightbulb to flicker for the final touches.
