Natural Beauty

Sunrise to sunset
The fullness of beauty in life
Scarcely have we seen as of yet -
Salient the sky
With the inherent intensity of merely being,
And the penetrating pleasure of simply asking why,
Why, oh why
Do we live... into
The day we die.

Life's wonder lies in the passion
Of its open heart,
With loves natural beauty
Its greatest art-
So many poems
And songs to sing,
Portions of God
Grace to us does bring-
Obvious or hidden
Shown or unshown,
From such incredible depths
Beauty begs to be known.

The sun sets
The stars arise,
A billion, billion times
God's own natural beauty comes alive.
