Sure Things of Beauty

Sure things of beauty
A waterfall ever so moody
Ready to jump off the cliff
And catch the winds steady drift

The birds in the sky
Who know where to go
They bravely say goodbye
Through rain and snow

Shy things of Beauty
An apple tree has blooms of white
Not sure of turning apple fruity
Is turning red really right?

The bright sun behind clouds of gray
Trying to make the ugly sky go away
The clouds block the glorious shine
But the sun knows everything will be fine

Things of confidence and things of grace
And things that try to leave no trace
Sureness and shyness really truly
Cover the world with things of beauty
