Ice Age
~~~~~~~
Before the vernal equinox
my vision was blurred by ice
I could not foresee your touch
melting me and giving sight
I warmed myself with embers
from a fire not my own
that simply chilled me deeper
and flash froze me to the bone
Now numbed by icy spirits
I trudged through wild winter’s ways
blinded by whipping whiteouts
grasping things along the way
Howling winds of self-made gales
deafened me to songs of hope
until I suddenly sank
through an icy path that broke
You saw my futile thrashing
and hopelessness to survive
Your Sun of Spring then gave me
eyes to see and come alive.

My coming to faith/trust in Jesus Christ opened my eyes to the beauty in nature as if I had moved from a black and white planet to a full color one! My eyes didn’t see well when my heart was in an ice age…
