WONDERSTRUCK
One day, I was doing some work,
My dad came and gave me a jerk,
Told me to follow silently,
I obeyed him excitedly,
I asked him what it was about,
He said, “Look”, and cleared all my doubt;
A garden lizard was digging
Patiently, as time was ticking,
I sat in a chair, watched in awe,
How she was digging with her paw;
I saw two more garden lizards,
One looked much like grandpa wizard,
The other must’ve been her husband,
They seemed to be unaccustomed
To whate’er was happening there,
I could only in wonder stare;
Soon she turned and slowly settled,
Started laying eggs, so little,
One by one, they dropped in the hole,
Fifteen cute eggs, all white and whole;
I was wonderstruck at that sight,
A once-in-a-lifetime delight,
I thank God for His creations,
And for that day’s revelations,
Nature’s beauty leaves me spellbound,
God’s wonders everywhere surround.
