In Awe of His Creation

From the bright yellow sun 
that rises in its glory in the 
beautiful mornings
Following the peaceful, 
chilly, non-bruit wee hours 
of the night
To the celestial birds that 
flap their fluffy wings in 
ecstasy of freedom
Gracefully piercing through 
the light blue skies
I’m smitten by this aureole 
creation. Oh, how beautiful!

From the infinite horizons, 
far beyond my eye can spy
Only from which I can hear 
the sound of the vibrant 
rivers
To the rains that drizzle 
from the heavens
Silently splashing on the 
countless grains of sand on 
which I stand
I’m amazed by this 
awesome creation. Oh, how 
wonderful!

From the flora and fauna of 
the wilderness
And the bouncing 
butterflies that spice the 
serene ambiance with color
To the ants of the ground 
and rodents that burrow 
the earth
Creating communities of 
millions; flourishing with 
life
I’m enchanted by this 
creation. Oh, how 
magnificent!

From the sun that sets in a 
blaze of resplendence
Fizzling out to its glorious 
hideout deep in the horizon
To the bats that blindly fly 
at dusk from the empty 
dungeons to the universe’s 
canopy of trees
And the twinkling stars 
cascading like millions of 
fireflies
I’m mesmerized by this 
creation. Oh, how majestic!
