Living Portraits

She rides the winds
with gentle grace
laughter in her eyes

She walks upon the earth
spreading sunshine,
serenity, and grace

She fills hearts full of love
cascading wild rivers
running over their banks

She has tamed the wild beast
and brought the lion to
play with the lamb

She whispers and nature
stops to reverently listen
to her wisdom

She brings forth life
love, strength, freedom
and heaven rejoices

She's starlight upon night's shadows
warming rays upon the morning glory
gentle rain to the soul

She is known by many names,
mother, wife, lover,
friend

She is a living portrait
God's most perfect creation
His greatest work of art
