Beauty of a Soul
The sun sparkles
On last night's snowfall
A blissful wind
Causes snow to dance
The sky is a rainbow
A rare delight
To the bunnies below
And to the wandering eyes
Of a lone child
Eyes wide like saucers
She observes the grace
Of the eternal universe
Looking like the kingdom of Heaven
Brought forth for her eyes alone
A youth though she may be
She can understand the spectacle
And appreciate the beauty
Laid out before her eyes
Wandering through the yard
The young girl feels like an adventurer
Curiosity unabated by age
And a weary heart
Much like the blessing of a new day
Her future is wide open
And it's all there within reach
She just doesn't know it yet
But one day she will
And her mother waits in the doorway
Watching her child
And her first steps into a world of wonder
Knowing the true beauty of a soul
Resides within our youth
And that we must strive to protect our world
For we are the gatekeepers
Holding the keys to tomorrow
In each soul we nurture
