Unbearable Beauty In Blue

Standing on a mountain peak
I find myself surrounded 
by a breezy cerulean sky.
How peaceful and restful 
is heaven’s hue.
Nature has breathed her essence on me.

Later I bathe in deep aqua blue
and again I am amazed.
How soothing and serene
is nature’s watery embrace.
How warm the caress 
of this tropical sea.

Midnight’s blue has found me now.
My soul is imbued with tranquility
as I stand again on the mountain peak
gazing up at an indigo immensity
where myriads of diamonds
glitter unbearable beauty to me.
How wonderful all of it is.

Andrea, this poem is cut off listed in the best tranquility poems. I think you could correct the problem by not centering it. This is beautiful! I had to click on it to see it in its entirety. : )
