In a Blue Ridge Mountain Moment
In a Blue Ridge Mountain moment
Soft rays of light pour in
Across the blue green mountains
Smiling, lifting, singing praises
Lighting the world with whispers
Of the most gentle peace
Longing to caress the spirit
On wings of graceful melodies
In a Blue Ridge Mountain moment
Beads of dew melt webs
Threaded by lonely spiders
On the nights of shadowy prayers
Laughing, breathing, repeating
All the joy that lives within
The soul who knows God’s healing
Embraces the darkest thought
In brightness that purrs on the air
In a Blue Ridge Mountain moment
Lavender ridges rise to the clouds
Coloring the morning in flames
Furiously lighting the way
Toward feelings of rapture
Brought alive by the churning belief
That even my dreams can be felt
On the silence that surrounds
This ancient mountain serenity
In a Blue Ridge Mountain moment
Reflections of faith sigh
Lingering on the stars twinkling
In the heavens, delighting
Echoing the moon’s intensity
On waves of sensitivity
Radiating the love that lives
On a heart who truly feels
The blessings of this mountain grace
In a Blue Ridge Mountain moment
Misty and drinking the buttery sunshine
Stealing hearts from their havens
Quenching the thirst for admiration
That comes in the floating clouds
Who drift like reveries on azure skies
Whispering, wishing, welcoming
Visions captured by the willowy flight
Of delicate, feathery, veils of insight
In a Blue Ridge Mountain moment
Dancing on the grateful heart
Comes a fanciful hope
For love that covers everything
In hues of faith and grace
Yearnings that come alive
On the thoughts of those who know
God is the only One
Who could create beauty wise enough
To shimmer from the eyes
Into the very heart of those who know
This love is beyond explanation
It feels like it has been written
On the stars, the sun, the moon
From the very thoughts of the One
Who created us all to love totally
In a Blue Ridge Mountain moment
Praise falls from my lips
Kissing the hopes created by
The One who breathed the life
Into my heart, soul and spirit
In a Blue Ridge Mountain moment
God blesses us with a creation
That lights feelings with splendor
So alive that we must be empty
To ignore these blessings we experience
In a Blue Ridge Mountain moment
There is intimacy with His creation
And a feeling that we’ve been touched
By the Creator who knows us best
Finally, we’ve been kissed
By the hand who feeds the land
In a Blue Ridge Mountain moment
I want to say thank you to Him
