SNOWFLAKES

Each unique.

No two alike.

Nature’s creation.

It is art for the world.

Falling softly to earth.

Showing off mid-air.

A little sparkle.

A little shine.

THE WATCHFUL EYE

The beauty.

The colors.

The design.

The fine details.

The watchful eye.

No picture can be painted

or statue created

to capture

this perfection,

this awe-inspiring wonder.

Here’s to the creator.

MAGIC

Source:looopism

It governs our lives.

It sets our course

On the paths, we follow.

Igniting our colors

And forming our creations.

Like words in a book

And brush strokes on an easel.

It gives us life

In multi-color.

What is it for you?

 

MAGIC

MAGIC

Magic governs our lives.

It sets the course.

The paths we follow.

Igniting in colors.

Creations.

Roaring wildlife.

Sedate sceneries.

Words in a book.

Clouds in the sky.

Magic.

ONLY A PICTURE

Can a picture capture the ocean?

Can it reveal changing colors,

ripples of the waves,

reflections of the deep?

A mirror to the sky.

Hold the picture up high.

The image lies flat and stagnant,

missing the life and energy

of nature’s creations.

PINK SAND

The sand so pink and soft.
Keeps my spirits aloft.
The water so clear and blue.
I want to enjoy that too.
Sun brightening the day.
All I want to do is play.

THE QUESTION

What is reality?
Do we see what is
actually around us?
Or is there a another reality?
A reality that we can’t see;
that we aren’t ready to see yet.
Will it ever come into focus?
Into a clarity that will reveal all.
The reason for our existence.
The reason for the world
as we know it.
Look closer.
Peer through the murkiness.
Find your own reality.

A BEAUTY FROM WITHIN

Nature has its beauty.
Rolling mountains.
Deep planes.
Blue skies.
Fields of flowers.
But there’s a deeper beauty.
A beauty that lies within.
Within the creations of nature.
A light.
A soul.
A purpose.

WHAT COMES TO MIND?

Colors.
Blues.
Pinks.
Light.
Movement.
Illusion.
Paint.
Strokes.
Lines.
Artist.
What else comes to mind?
What about ‘creativity’?

TRIUMPH OF NATURE

What gifts do you have for us,
Oh beautiful sky?
Some warm sunshine.
A soft breeze or two.
Maybe a light misting.
Your gaze is triumphant.
Reflecting on the soothing waves.
I could feel your warmth.
See your beauty.
Hear your tentative rumbling.
Taste the salty air with my tongue.
My senses are engaged.
You delight and tantalize them.
Thank you.

PICTURE PERFECT

Perfect lines cast in the sand.
Had they been made by man?
Or could the waves had made them
when they lapped upon the shore?
Bringing moisture to the hot sand.
Leaving behind their own
distinctive footsteps.
Footsteps that cannot be duplicated.
Temporary footsteps until the next day
when they appear again.
Like magic?
No, like nature.

PERSEVERANCE

Perseverance

We trudge along in our hard lives.
Suffer through illnesses and deaths.
But we still carry on.
Why?
Why does this flower continue
to hold its head up high?
Hope.
It hopes for warmer days ahead.
We hope for better times.
Hope keeps us alive and warm.
We must never give up on hope.

NATURE'S WILL BE DONE

We fight nature’s will.
Ride its mighty waves.
Dig up its natural resources.
Cut down its plentiful trees.
Pollute its clear waters.
But will we ever have total control?
Make it bow to our will.
Never.
Nature can never be tamed
or controlled.
It will remain strong,
long after we’re gone.

THE WATCHFUL EYE

The beauty.
The colors.
The design.
The fine details.
The watchful eye.
No picture can be painted
or statue created to capture
this perfection,
this awe-inspiring wonder.
Here’s to the creator.

NATURE’S BOUNTY

A flower so beautiful reveals
nature’s proud purpose.
It brings beauty and joy
to our lives.
We must open our hearts and minds
to appreciate its powerful message.

A PERFECT CREATION

Time to think.
Open space to explore.
A perfect life.
A perfect creation.

BEAUTY ALL AROUND US

Beauty can be found in
the most unusual places.
Beauty surrounds us each day.
It can take on many forms.
It can be a soft laugh.
The smell of a rain shower.
A dog wagging its tail.
We are surrounded by beauty
whether we are able to discern it or not.

NATURE'S MAJESTY

Beauty.
Majesty.
Awe-inspiring.
There are no words
to describe this.
Nature’s work cannot
be compared or copied.

LIFE ON EARTH

Was there life on earth before us?
Will there be life after we’re gone?
Who is running the show?
Is there a boss behind it all?
If there is, then he or she is
keeping his secrets very close.
No one has figured it out yet.
Maybe we never will.

DEPTHS OF THE OCEAN

What do you see when you
gaze into the ocean?
Do you see the strength of its waves?
Do you see the vast array of colors?
Do you watch as it pounds the shore,
sometimes with great fury?
Do you see the creatures living
in its murky depths?
I see this and much more.
Its beauty and life force is beyond comparison.
It is perfection.
