Greatest Creation
I would give everything, to witness the sun embrace the horizon
I would do anything to gaze at a full moon in the night sky
Even a rainbow would be thrilling to capture sight of
I would love to swim in crystal clear waters, of an untouched sea
When looking skyward at night, I am captured by a shooting star
Then I turn my attention to the millions of stars, igniting my soul
The mist that comforts the mountain tops is a wonderment
As is a stroll through the rain forest
To see the glory of waterfalls cascading down the mountain side
The breath taking view on the highest peak in the world
Then, to gaze on what lies below
To soar as the Eagle does, above the clouds, against the bluest sky
I would love to be able to see all the magnificence in this world
That of a red rose, blooming in the Sahara
A river winding its way through arid land
To witness all these wonders of the world
But, I know I am already looking at the world’s most exquisite creation
Every time you smile, every time I look passionately into your eyes
