A feeling of rhapsodic felicity overwhelms me
as I contemplate natures radiant complexity
Sapphire skies, pink clouds and butterflies
emerge like the chrysalis from it's cocoon
A plethora of stunning beauty surrounds me
as dulcet tones of birdsong entrances me
Idyllic conditions like Eden's splendour are
reflections of our Creator's love and grandeur
Like the butterfly our life is short and flutters by
beauty is evanescent but temporarily transcendent
No talisman is needed, paradise is sure to come
with God's blessing all earth's damage, will soon be undone.
