Beauty and Glory
The beauty of the world are many indeed
And one shall not see them if one gives no pause to observe
The many little things of Life.
A candle flame, serene and silent, occasionally wavering
A drop of dew upon the green, glistening gently
A river long and running, bubbling and laughing
A sea, calm and vast, sight of it ever soothing
A tree of pleasing sight, whispering and swaying
An ice cube before a light, stolidly sparkling
A beam of light in the darkness, a white fire burning
A tear drop falling gently, sorrow within its core
A star in the blanket of night, gleaming and shining
The moon, full and round, pale, cold and lovely
The night, dark and cold, a million jewels twinkling
The day, wondrous and bright, peacefully smiling
The Sun, glorious and majestic, glaring powerfully
The clouds of twisted shapes, adrift and floating
The stones and rocks, earthern bones meditating
The flower and grass, embellishment of fields, gently swaying
The lightning, wrath of the heavens, brilliantly flashing
The mountains, high, lofty and towering
The volcano, flame, smoke and ash a-spewing
The wind and breeze, unseen yet cool and delighting
The song, peacefully calming, melodiously singing
The smile, warm and cheerful, always heartening
The Man, tall, sturdy and powerful, of great bearing
The Woman, graceful, beautiful and fair, of great gentility
Now says who that gems and gold are the most beautiful of all things? Woe to the fool who says so for his or her life has been spent walking in darkness, blinded by a love for objects of riches and power. Blind is he or she who sees not the natural beauty of the Earth, that was created of long ago.
The beauty of the Earth, is more plentiful than the beauty of diamonds and gold for the wondrous sight of Water and Sun are a thousandfold more lovely than the sparkle of gem under light.
The World is lovely, eyes be opened, observe and see!!
