Gay profusion
Immense, intense,
Combining colours,
Encouraging self-seedings
Growing willowy
Sinewy, softly.
Freedom maybe,
Most happily
Or formality,
Somebody’s choice.
God’s voice.
Offers profusion
No illusion.
Generosity flourishes
In rushes
Of flowers.
Growing now
For pleasure,
Whirls, twirls
Of colour.
In richness
Really God
Delights us!
He offers us
Rich pleasure
To treasure!

Lord, thank You for this gift. Amidst all of Your gifts in creation’s story, surely our delight in colour sits as a
rich pleasure indeed. How generous You are to think of this. Amen.
