Beauty Abounds

Beauty All Around Me
by Anna

The afternoon sun is shining brilliantly,
Fluffy white clouds are passing slowly by…
Goodness reveals itself, as far as the eye can see.

Fragrant breezes waft gently by…
Beauty all around me...I feel I could fly.

The moon beams tenderly down on me tonight,
Darkness shrouds me like a cloak.
Stars sparkling, so lovely, so bright.

Sweetness and splendor are clear to the eye...
Beauty all around me...I feel I could fly.

In the early morning I see dewdrops on the flowers.
Beauty, glory spreads across the morning sky…
Showing God’s almighty powers.

Such loveliness abounds, I feel I could cry…
Beauty all around me...I feel I could fly.

A tiny child gives his mother his first smiles.
A flower spreads its first delicate petals.
A little girl surmounts her first difficult trials.


I don’t want this time to pass me by…
Beauty all around me...I feel I could fly.

s one of the first poems I've ever tried to write though, so I thought for the sake of that I'd share it with you guys!! It's silly, but I think somewhere deep inside all the "trying-too-hard-to-be-poetic-ness there is a little bit of hope. Tee hee!!!
