BEAUTY

For all the beauty within our world,
we sometimes fail to see,

For golden thoughts spread with love.
and given unselfishly.
 
The vibrancy of the humming bird,

So delicate its perfection,

The silver starlight on the sea,

And rippling reflection.
 

The coolness of a snowflake,

Whispering as it lays,

Sunlight patterns emerging from

A waterfall’s misty haze.
 

Bubbles of changing colour,

Breathing air into the light,

The vision of an owl

Gliding silently at night.

 

To rest on noble branches,

Of trees that touch the sky,

A haven of rest

 For winged creatures that do fly.
 

And amongst the roots do linger,

The tiny insects too,

A microscopic world,

Often hidden from our view.
 

A world within our world,

A part within the whole,

As important as any in

The Universal Soul.
