Today’s dVerse Poets Pub challenge is to write a Quadrille – 44 words – and seeing the beautiful spring season it must use the word ‘green’.
Blessed is he who trusts in the Lord,
Like a tree planted by the stream:
It does not fear when scorching heat comes,
Its leaves are always lush green;
It has no worries in a year of drought
And never fails to bear fruit.

God will always be all we need. He will make something out of us.
Beautiful!
Also Psalm 1. Yes, it shows up often in scripture and for me it is about staying close in prayer.
That metaphor gets used a few times in scripture and always very effectively – just like your lovely poem!
A very inspiring read, evergreen comes to my mind ~ Thanks for joining us ~
Absolutely beautiful. A definition of faith.
