One of God's Best Secrets

The clouds like mighty trumpets

Blew in the Winter's first snow

And created an enchanting wonderland,

Making an architectural show.

The air was of purest white

That danced around in swirls

And made the ghostly-barren fields

A sea of giant, white furrows.

All of the thickened woodlands,

Once barren, naked, and brown,

Now glisten and sparkle with splendor

As the snowflakes drift around.

"Oh, let it snow!" cry the little ones.

It's a sight to see and feel.

It's one of God's best-kept secrets

That in the Winter He reveals.

~ Shirley Hile Powell

Adorn yourself with grandeur

and majesty, and array yourself

with glory and splendor.

Job 40:10
