Resemblances

Delicate flowers of the field
In effervescent, lively color
Bear the resemblance of their Maker
Clothed in beauty.

Majestic clouds in the sky
In lofty, towering billows
Bear the resemblance of their Maker

In simple, heartfelt obedience
Bear the resemblance of their Maker
Clothed in righteousness.
