They Do

I don't know why crystals form.
I just know that they do.
I don't know why they shape themselves
in forms so beautiful to me and you. 
Do they make themselves beautifull
or is it the hand of God? 
Do butterflies, flowers and rainbows 
similary carry on? 
Can birds change their feathers 
or leapard his spots. 
If one would ask the chamilion, 
he would probably ask "why not?". 
Is the beauty you posses of your own doing? 
or did God richly bless while you were growing?
I don't know why you catch my eye. 
I just know you do. 
Feelings comming from my eyes 
all because of you

Good day,, T.S. and how are you this lovely..night.. All life forms to life the way it matters... change is what flows within and without.. all movements from God's, creation has a solid strength or weak... all depends how you see the things that catch your eyes.. beauty of one perhaps... enjoyed,..p.d.
