Beauty Everywhere


I find beauty in the mountaintops
Where they sit in the periphery of my vision
Like cupcakes huddled together
Trying to keep warm in the chill

I find beauty in the rain forests
Where I can dance beneath the canopy
Serenaded by millions of bugs
And observed by passing panthers

I find beauty in the hearts of humanity
As people open their arms to me 
And we embrace out of love
Rejecting the shackles of hatred

I find beauty in memory
Where our beloved dead reside
Forever reminding us to smile
When we feel the tears welling

I find beauty in everything
And maybe one day everything
Will find beauty in me
As I search for home

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
