UNEXPECTED GIFTS

How lucky we are as humans

that on the wings of nature drift

a myriad of wonders...

A host of unexpected gifts.

 

A seedling blooms into a flower,

an acorn grows into a tree,

a drop of water from the heavens

forms a river to the sea.

 

The sun ignites the morning sky,

the moon gently bathes the night

there is enchantment in a rainbow

and the twinkle of starlight.

 

And so I wonder...

 

Has nature also provide us

with potentials as yet untapped...

unexpected gifts inside us...

waiting to be unwrapped?

 

I believe she has…I believe inside each of us

on the wings of nature drift…

A myriad of wonders

 

A host of unexpected gifts.
