The Gifts In Life

I often wonder how the firefly glows,
 like a shooting star at night it shimmers
 then goes. Then I realise some things 
 remain unknown, for its the mystery of 
 life its marvel sure on going.

 The treasure
 of a kingdom a king upon his thrown. With
 wisdom and power, yet the answers ever more
.
 Take the humming bird so fragile, yet wings a 
 thousand flaps and the owl in the moonlight 
 sees the spark come from a match. It's these
 gifts that make them special and that is simply 
 that.
