How Can You Not Believe?

All about the world we live in!

The trees and flowers blossom.

The rain falls into puddles on the ground.

The air smells of prefume.

How can you not believe?

 

The earth turns to green.

The birds sing songs.

The wind blows.

How can you not believe?

 

The leaves turn colors and fall.

The creatures find their hiding places.

The breeze is crisp.

How can you not believe?

 

The air you  breathe becomes like fog.

The snow falls on the ground,

The earth glistens with it's whiteness.

How can you not believe?

 

Believe in who?

GOD!!!!

This great big question deserves a Two Thumbs Up, beginner or not. :)

[KAREN]

Well, thank you so much!

[William Michael Reeves]

That's a big question! Especially to start writing with. Good first effort. Glad you mentioned it. Fun to see how your poetry will progress.

[KAREN]

Thanks! That's one of my old poems!

[William Michael Reeves]

I like going back to the beginning hoping I might find a poets first poem. I posted mine and asked if others had but no one was brave enough to share them. Can be embarrassing but just as important as any others.

[KAREN]

I'm trying to get better at my attempt of writing poems.

[William Michael Reeves]

I've been learning that one of the most important things is to relax. Set the poem aside then come back to it with a fresh mind and read it objectively like someone else wrote it. And then hope you have honest poetic friends to read and review. Hard to find. I'll be nothing but....

[KAREN]

Thank you so much!

'How can you not believe?'

Each line gives words that most understand at least to differing ways and degrees. What is it about nature that draws our wonder our hearts? I can identify with this poem very much as I am a lover of Jesus the Christ who saved me and washed away my sins and created all.

The masses of mystery within the infinite galaxy is so mysterious and filled with wonder. How Great is our God! Hope your enjoying your last days of winter as it is special as are all the seasons.
Bless you and your twin sister. Kinda like the name Kathy after all.

Of course, I knew who you were referring to before your last line. The only flaws I see here are minor: a typo at "prefume", and, "leaves TURN and FALL". Your message is beautiful in it's simplicity. Like, "How can you numskulls who think yourselves ENLIGHTENED not see the obvious proof around you?!"

Very Amazing write and powerful. I love this one.
Love the ending!

[Cynthia]

This is so true. How can you think there's nobody behind this beautiful earth? Do you really think this planet and all the life on it happened by chance? NO!!! Just look around and you can see all of His works. For those who don't believe, I feel sorry for you. That's all I can say.

[Claude]

For those who need proof, these examples are self-evident. It is fantastic that your thoughts cherish these things as proof.

[SpokenWord]

Nature is the true evidence of a higher power but of course science tries to even dispel that notion. The more intelligent we become the less faithful we are.
