Midnight Garden Interlude

 
Midnight Garden
 
Blue-black midnight dark surrounds the sacred garden ground
In yonder diffused gray there, sought quiet solitude easy found
 
Illuminated translucent ball backlights billows in soothing glow
Cloud-edges scribed within abyss points heaven’s way, they show
 
Mortals below in sepia tones quite often stumble, sometimes fall
In quiet softness they wraithlike arise to heed holy eternal call
 
Stark beauty in daguerreotype, black-white obfuscated sight
Portrays the bounty in silent slumber growing in the still night
 
Early morning rains may fall to quench the parched plants’ thirst
Or just a misted heavy dew to greet the ’morrows rays, come first
 
Alabaster moon orb marches o’er velvet darkness tender-sweet caress
Garden shadows slow-motion sway in rhythmic shadowed nature-dress
 
To satiate hunger visits long-eared speedy bunny cottontail
Temptation candy-like where succulent leafy greens do hail
 
The surreptitious bandit sporting a black mask to hide his face
Gold corn ears ripe for harvest devoured at a most frantic pace
 
Invite God’s creatures celebrate the midnight garden’s feast
For the greater man might brag he is, for sure, he is the least
 
Faith teaches follow Savior under star-like sparkle-white diamond
Belief reminds Redeemer there in glow where I did truly find Him
 
Please see the simple logic in this convoluted scheme
Live unafraid in Jesus Christ, in His Holy Bible theme
 
Amen!
