A Brand New View

For thee, I pick an orchid
Full blooming in soft sun
Behold its splendid pastel shade
It's beauty hard for tongue
To capture in a moment
For words are way too young
Compared to nature's beauty
All language has but just begun

Behold any small crystal
That sparkles in the light
Or try in brief to describe
A swallow in mid-flight
Though poetry and story
May stir some thoughts in you
In every fleeting  moment
There is a brand new view
