Awe And Wonder

There's wonder in every unique wispy fluff of snowflake

There's wonder and mystery in the stillness of every lake

There's wonder in the petals of each exquisite flower

Thers's wonder in our universe awe-inspiring power


From every raindrop that spatters, pours and fall

To vast forests with majestic trees towering sky tall

From the mighty waves that crest, rush then roar

To the sparkling sandy beaches with tropic sun aglow


There's wonder in every deep raging fierce volcano

There's wonder in inky storm clouds billowing on the go

There's wonder in the exotic flickering of the fragile firefly

There's wonder in a small child's innocent query of why


From the highest mountaintop to the deepest valley below

To the butterflies and birds flying in a perfect synchronized row

From the graceful gazelle,busy bees and powerful pythons

To an army of ants, savage sharks, leaping lemurs or lions


There's wonder in the vibrant rainbow after the raging storm

There's wonder in all the planets perfect alignment and form

There's wonder in the silvery moon and twinkling milky way

There's wonder in the vivid hues as the sun bides bye to day


From the bountiful fruits baskets laden with nature's gifts

To delicious delectable dishes assaulting the senses like a kiss

From the joyful music in every new baby's anticipated first cry

I often wonder..is this masterpiece,The Master's first and only try?
