Laura Leiser Poet Acrostic

Breathtaking

Brilliant and stunning are the luminescent colors of a lory bird's feathers
Resplendent in beauty, a reflection of nature's endless magnificence.
Ever present evening starlight stuns, shooting sparkling diamond gems
Along the milky way, a star studded universal wonderland.
Tall and towering redwoods stand like grand giants blocking the sky
Higher than any living thing, a witness to centuries of history.
Thundering waterfalls pour forth, tumbling with reckless abandon
As splashing sprays of water reflect dozens of shimmering rainbows.
Kisses of passion with declarations of love, a breathtaking moment
Increase the senses to the beauty and glory of a stunning sunset.
New life being witnessed with the birth of one's newborn baby
God's precious gift, as a young couple carefully count her fingers and toes.
