Beauty of Our Lives

Look into the eyes of a baby
                               There lies the beauty of our lives
                             The reason to live, the reason to die
                                  Watch a kitten with a string
                                      Innocence of newness
                                 The sun and its glorious colours
                               The hues of yellow, orange and pink
                                   The way it melts and spreads
                                       It's all of humanities link
                                           Open up your eyes
                                         To all that is around us
                                               To appreciate 
                                         All that life has to offer 
                               Some things you don't want to miss 

                                               It Takes Four
