Claire Burge over at High Calling Blogs challenged us to take a closer look with our cameras and for quite some time, in various ways, God has been asking me to the same.Look closer. Look deeper. Look sharper. Look through My eyes!
L. E. Fiore blogged here about a new five line Japanese poetry form called gogyohka. This is my first taste:
Am I too blinded
by the vast
to reach the details of His majesty
missing yet another chance
awestruck to worship
I am also linking this post to One Shot Wednesday. Stop by and read the poetry that others have left behind.
Breathtaking!!

Isn't this poetry fun? It would also be fun to be a bee and pollinate those yummy flowers. What a job delightful job it would be.
