Life Is Beautiful

Memorizing the view in the Vatican City
I'm just a visitor at the Sistine chapel
admiring the ceiling,a masterpiece of
art,Impressed by the painting of
'Adam's Creation",my mind just
thinking of one name-Michelangelo
Relaxing on my bed reading a
sonnet so very close to my heart
"Shall i compare thee to a summer's
day",my mind just thinking of 
of one name--Shakespeare
lost in one of the most mysterious  melodies
 of the last unfinished work yet with a finished
touch to the world,hearing"The Requeim",
my mind just thinking of one name-Mozart
Getting up from bed,opening my window
 feeling the sun's warmth on my skin
admiring the  picturesque view of the ocean,
the trees along the coast , the flowers
 blooming outside scenting the gardens,
the blue sky so clear,and the air so fresh,
My neighbors passing by, smiling saying 
goodmorning,i'm here, just watching,
mesmerized by so many things
bright and beautiful i seem to take forgranted
my mind just thinking of one name
 the creator who created the greatest
Michelangelo,Shakespeare and Mozart.................
yes i'm thinking and i rejoice with thanks 
and  gratitude cos He is the same Creator
My Creator--Your creator
