Land Of
Grace
Oh land of grace where all is still
Slumbering through the Winter's chill,
In peaceful rest 'til Springtime comes
When Jays give birth and nature hums..
..Do you still feel him here?
And, when the breeze caresses you
With melodies that won't subdue,
Sweet lullaby..the echo calls
Somewhere beyond those mansion halls..
..Does he sing for us to hear?
He sat beneath my boughs at times,
And whispered words with grace and rhymes
While I would shake my blossoms down
Until they formed a kingly crown..
..Yes, I still feel him near!
~*~
I see his shadow now and then,
And hear his laughter sometimes when
My loneliness seems more than I can bear.
And, when my branches swing and sway
It's just my special way to say
I feel his spirit ...everywhere
..upon this land of grace!
