The Gift
The glistening sheen of great pride
Agleam
in a new parent’s eye
Purple mountains afar
Twinkling stars in the sky
These everyday sights that we see
Spider webs enhanced
by the dew
Like jewels in the first morning sun
Laughing children at play
Tag
you’re it What great fun
These visions that bring us such glee
Visions we just take for granted
Like rainbows to end rainy days
Sunsets and sunrises
Sails aloft in the bay
Common sights that give such a lift
Wild geese flying south in a V
Silhouettes in a twilight sky
Autumn leaves on the breeze
Sights enjoyed with a sigh
To see What a wonderful gift
