Beautiful
Babies when they come to us, sweet and innocent.
Evenings when the sun drips colors from a blazing sky.
Any time that I am feeling perfectly content.
Unusually romantic tales and songs that make folks sigh.
These are things so beautiful that they enrich my life.
Illumination of the mind; my spirit sings!
Fields and starry firmaments, mountains, lakes and streams.
Unfathomable love, which helps the weak sprout wings.
Love that saves the sinner and realizes dreams!
