Nature

I was shocked when I saw you

And even more touched that I never noticed you

How ignorant could I have been?

…For me to not have seen?

I think I once knew you

When there wasn’t so much light around you

And I was used to you

I never took the time to admire you

Who would have thought you would become my muse…

Today my jaws dropped

I am awed and appalled

I couldn’t take my eyes off of you

I smiled…

I had to take a moment with you

Now it is easier for me to see

When there is no light around to blind me

You look “dashing! Astonishing!”

Then I thought, you couldn’t have been less than amazing

You are beauty by nature

You are as your creator

I see him through you

One more time, do me this favor

Let me see you again…

And I might be able to explain

In darkness just the two of us

When there is no sound to interrupt

I might be able to question and stare in the deep blue

What I think of you……………

If I can master up the strength

If I would be endowed with the proper attributes and attitudes of a poet

Then I would be able to describe my astonishment

“You are light in darkness

Your beauty is priceless…

Your nature mirrors your creator”

So well-put together

Just like their maker.

Those stars in the sky made me wonder…

“The beauty of nature is its creator”

And I know if I think about it enough, I will know him for sure.
