Arts and Crafts From Grains of Sand

Life is a smile of a newborn in mother's arms

Arts and crafts of stained glass from grains of sand

Freedom of a chick on its very first flight

Love of a mother scurrying beside a young fawn

Float on a lotus pond in style of white swans

Lyrics of nature scripted in nightingale's song

Painting in vermilion tints rising on meadows of fall

Rivers rushing down from spring mountaintops

Romance in lover's eyes watching a new dawn 

Wonder in breath of a single-celled amoeba

"Wonder in breath of a single-celled amoeba"- a different version to describe the beauty of life. You captured it Vijay, in the best way.

The birth of a human, a creature, a season, a romance, a painting of meadows in fall - all are breathtaking! Your last line sums everything up beautifully Vijay -'Wonder in breath of a single celled amoeba' - a clever write indeed. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
