Grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ
To him be glory both now and forever...Amen... II Peter 3:18


 Cut tulips in a  pitcher
Live  awhile ... then die.

The Monarch butterfly
 Adds life to the picture.

 New bulbs are sleeping
For next years  keeping.

 May their days  be long
To wax old and strong.

Perennial   flowers
Rest  seasonable hours

The blest and wise,
Know the time to arise!

 When to stir from  beds.
And close to take a break.

To be alert--- wide awake.
Tulips open their heads!

 Jesus teaches us to think,
It is written on each face.

We watch His glories 
An open book of stories.

Orange~yellow~ pink~
Purple ~ red and rose.

The promises of  rainbows,
Grow in grace!
