Beautiful Day

Perfection can be found 
     in the simplest of things

In the sun shining warmly
     in a clear blue sky
     as it finds just the right places to land

In the breeze sweetly blowing 
     on your face
     each time you need refreshed

In the delightful mix of sun and air
     that begs for you to 
             Breathe It
             Soak in It
             Bathe in It
     until you have had your fill
             and then some

In the onset of dusk
     that signals you
     to come and see
     the end of a glorious show
     
In the colorful flowers
     showing off their blooms
     as they fill the evening air
     with their wonderful aroma

In the crunch of the leaves
     underneath your feet
     as you stroll along 
     the peaceful streets

In the trees reaching down
     to greet you as you pass
     with a cheery hello 
     and a nod of their head

In the pink-streaked sky
     as the sun takes it rest
     after working hard
     to brighten our lives

In the wink of the crescent moon
     as it makes a surprise appearance
     while the sun finishes its bedtime routine

In a day that was so beautiful in every way
     from beginning to end
     that your spirit soars
     to heaven to thank it
     for letting you truly
             See It
             Touch It
             Taste It
             Smell It
             Hear It
                 and
             Feel It
     with all the senses
     blessed upon you

9/27/14
Inspired by the enjoyment of the most beautiful day
as I was walking in the evening and contemplating it

Splendor

I see 
the possibility 
of all that is to come
I smell
the freshness
of a brand new day
I taste
the sweetness
of love in my heart
I feel
the fabric
of my everlasting soul
I hear 
the gong
calling me home

I sense
the awakening
rising from the Earth.
I hope for 
Peace
pouring softly from the sky
I speak
the truths
whispered in my ear
I listen
carefully for
the beating of the drum
The ancient heartbeat
to unite us all
as One


I have 
Faith 
that Prophecies 
will come to pass
I will
Rise
higher than 
the Sun
To be
transformed 
into 
Pureness and Light
To see
my Spirit
in all its 
Splendor
Instead of
through a glass darkly
