All Around Us

In this world of doom and gloom
It hard to find a smile
But look upon the flowers in bloom
And smile for a while

Today we see more death and pain
On the news everyday
But look at the beauty in the rain
And let your soul sway

Because everywhere we humans live
The are things of joy
To your soul, joy these things give
This the world cannot destroy
