THE FLAME OF HIS PRESENCE
A bush that burned though unconsumed
Once caught the eye of Moses;
And so the flame that in us burns
Affects each one who knows us.
As Christians we should stand apart,
Because we live like Jesus;
Because we shine with holy light
For every one that sees us.
No less impressive than the bush
In desert life and story,---
The ministers of God who preach
His presence and His glory.

Maybe this one's my favorite. At least until tomorrow.
I love this one, too! It's so simple, yet the lighter area just seems emanate from an internal source of light. It's totally unedited, too (other than cropping). You see that same leaf in my banner, only I placed it 'wrong side up' in the banner because of the beautiful pinkish color and the dark veins. I liked the way it played against the greens of the other leaves.
I do love the poem too! And its perfect for that leaf!
I love the poem you chose to put with this leaf art. Beautiful Kim!
