Beauty in Nature

There's a poem in every flower, 
a sonnet in every tree, 
a tale in every lifetime
it's just for you to see…

there's a lyric in every brook
as it rushes over rocks, 
there's an ode in every nuance, 
as love's wonder unlocks, 

there's rhythm in every sound, 
every beating of a heart, 
there's poetry in every union
and every couple who are apart

and just as there is wonder 
in every new life created
there is sadness and regret, 
for the unsaid and unfeted

just listen for the music
that your ears cannot hear, 
just strain yourself for the melody
that's so far and yet so near 

the wonder of the creator, 
the magic of the divine
is there to feel, for all of us, 
to soon be yours and mine.
