"The world is charged with the grandeur of God." Quote by _ Gerald Manley Hopkins (1844-1889)
I look at beautiful nature and I am awed, And though my life has been one of sorrow; I always look forward to my tomorrow _ Though broken- I have created a lovely facade. Sadly, I have lived a life doomed to be flawed, But, I lose myself among bird echoes in a meadow: And within the peace and quiet of falling snow_ Oh, look at nature! How can you not be aw'd? ___________________________ November 13, 2022 Poetry/Rhyme/Awed By Nature Copyright Protected, ID 11-1501-995-13 All Rights Reserved, 2022, Constance La France Written for the Premiere contest, 2022 Poetry Marathon, Mile 20 sponsor, Mark Toney, Judged 11/24/2022

It is within nature in all seasons that I find my peace and that feeling inspired me to pen this poem.
