“The Beauty of Worship”

| Laura Lee Bonde

When my eyes are closed
I see more of Him
the vision of my heart
so clear

Burning through my soul
reminding me
of Your love
for me

He said, “The beauty of your worship
to Me fills heaven.
On earth, it looks different,
but in Heaven,
the beauty’s the same.”

Every Body Sings

| Laura Lee Bonde

Yesterday, Kyle took me to the symphony. I was honored: honored to be thought of, honored to be asked, honored to be with him.

“Awakened By My Heart”

| Laura Lee Bonde

Awakened: my soul from a sweet, deep sleep
eyes closed
calmly breathing
thoughts of you

Who is this man who’s entered my sleep
Who’s roamed through my day
lept into my heart
my mind

Awakened: by poetry that nourished my soul
my beauty within
aligning with Him
breathes the fullness of heaven

Who is this man who’s kind and sweet
favorite color
deepest dream
What thoughts enter “his” mind, while he sleeps

Awakened: my life from a heart untouched
waiting for God
feelings unknown
yet trusting
I’m awake
