A poem by David Stewart, PhD
The fragrances of flowers,
Of fields, and of the trees
Exhaled as God’s own breathing
As wafted on a breeze
Inhaled by us, his children
To mingle with our own
The taking of His likeness
Into our flesh and bone
The healing of the nations
By oils of stems and leaves
Embracing Him in silence
In resonance we breathe
Vibrations of the Master
God’s molecules of love
The essence of creation
Distilled from heav’n above
Essential oils of living
God’s nature to imbue
With joy and peace and courage
Uplifting me and you.
As God breathed life to Adam
God’s oils bring life to heal
In sweet aromas fragrant
His presence we do feel
