As Beautiful As Ii

AS BEAUTIFUL AS II* (We are all created as beautiful as…) 1. As beautiful as the light that raptures at dawn And the gentle caress of the morning’s breeze As beautiful as the melody of a bird’s early song And a flower’s perfume that scents with ease 2. As beautiful as the mountains that pierce through the sky And the clothed in green soft rolling hills, As beautiful as the brooks that pass close by And the glorious valleys where grass the earth drills 3. As beautiful as the trees that stand with pride And the colorful foliage that dresses them to ground, As beautiful as the birds that in their nests go to hide And the colorful plumage that their bodies surround, 4. As beautiful as the grace of a placid lake And the screaming beauty of the thunderous falls, As beautiful as a spring that water can make And the river’s murmur that life gently calls 5. As beautiful as the waves that the ocean ride And the hovering foam that to each puts a crown, As beautiful as the corals that in the deep we find And the courteous fish that swim all around 6. As beautiful as the beams of the setting sun And the scattering clouds that are set all aflame, As beautiful as the moon when the day is done And the brightest stars that give sky fame 7. As beautiful as the rainbow ever can be And a radiant drop of dew on an exotic flower, So beautiful, OUR LORD, us have created Thee With THY compassionate and holy power! © Demetrios Trifiatis 14 December 2013 *This poem I was unable -before becoming a member for life- to post in its entirety, for that reason I post it again as was originally written with minor changes!
