See the Magic

See The Magic Brilliance of a sunrise, lost in awe of it’s symmetry Mesmerizing beauty of a sunset, lost in the artistry Birds singing morning songs, divine sounds in the air Littlest of creatures scurrying about, here and there Sights of a babbling creek can ease any worried mind The sound of a rapid flowing river, so deafening by design On a misty, still lake, a loon’s haunting cry, so sublime In a dense forest glen, somewhere lost within time On the shore of some distant ocean, waves crashing in The beach, stretching for miles, to where it ends or begins The roar of the waves, the whitish bubbling foam disappears The water seemingly goes on forever, off into the hemisphere Music playing in the distance, sounds dancing in your mind The laughter of small children, playing games of all kinds The warmth in a summer’s eve, gentleness of rain begins to fall The stillness of the night, darkness befalls, embracing one and all Try to be aware of all the wondrous gifts that are all around you See with eyes wide open, as the bewildering child you once knew When you only see the ugliness, if all you can see is the tragic Just open up your heart and mind, you will truly see the magic
