Beauty

The colors of blues and yellows...the delightful scent of wild flowers...the enchanting play of stars playfully falling from a waterfall...a quiet river running a race towards the sea...the reflection of yourself with laughter in your eyes...and all things that are beautiful like; a burst of sunset in red, yellow and orange, it's mirror image in the distant horizon, the sound of a newborn cry...the feel of a toddlers hug...and the sound of music only you can hear.

Purple morning glories wide open with morning dew...the kiss of rain falling on your luminous face...the ride of a kayak on calm waters...the sight of your grandchild on your daughter's breast...the first step of a child with a sipping cup in his hand...and the delightful giggles of toddlers at play.

The color of pure white at your first born wedding...tears of joy for his new life...a deep red rose for new beginnings...a solid ring of love for all eternity...bright hopes and dreams in eyes filled with joy...the quiet peace that all are safe and it is finished. Maggie Swain (MS)
