The Beauty Of

The Beauty Of

A summer sunrise with wisps of clouds
Oak trees against the wind driven snow
The vivid hues of scenic ocean views
A stream flowing through a quiet meadow

A Great Blue Heron on a serene pond
High mountain peaks above the tree line
An artist giving character to a face
Smiling children when it's ice cream time

The calm of the lake, just before dark
A star filled night with a gentle breeze
Crystalline waters from the thawing ice
An amber sunset with swaying Palm Trees

The shiny soft coat of my neighbor's cat
A cascading waterfall and thundering sound
The look and smell of fresh-mowed grass
A soft snow flake as it drifts to the ground

Golden wheat fields in the summer sun
A Dandelion's soft and fluffy white down
The love in your eyes whenever I'm around
A radiant new bride in her wedding gown

Some drift wood washed up on the beach
Monarch butterflies resting on a log
Cherry blossoms ablaze in the spring
Patterns on the back of an old Bull frog

A dew drop dangling from the tip of a leaf
The leaves of autumn so red, orange and gold
The head dress worn by an old Indian Chief
The love of two people that never grows old
