Eyes and Minds
Eyes and Minds
Miracles can happen anywhere
Open to contradiction by many
In the eyes and minds of a be-holder
The extraordinary event is real
People claim to witness all types of miracles
Other people dispute miracles out-right
Miracles can’t be substantiated by fact
And are ascribed to the supernatural
Most claimed miracles are religious based
Those who follow their beliefs will always believe
The non-believers dismiss miracles as an imaginative event
With no hard evidence or scientific natural world facts
People all over the world use the word miracle
To describe events that are not natural
But is it loosely used and exaggerated?
To suit the person who claims a miracle
I cut a live wire with pliars, threw me against the wall
A miracle I wasn’t electrocuted and killed
Or was it luck as the pliars were insulated
And I was wearing rubber boots on the wet ground
It’s a miracle we can live and breathe on this planet
That the world has a diverse range of flora and fauna
That the universe around is infinite and unbelievable
That we have evolved to become intelligent humans
There is no concrete answer to how the universe was formed
Scientists and astronomers are still trying to solve the mystery
I would like to think that the answers will be found in time
But it will be a miracle if it happens before we destroy what we have now
