Articles: Poetry | The Beauty of Life - Ms. Rajeswari Pathaneni
| |
Have you ever taken notice of what life is all about?
Not the pain, not the suffering, not the hustle or the bustle,
Not the stress or the panic or the lack of this or that.
Life holds so much beauty
If we'd only take the time to slow down and look around
It's everywhere we go
But so often we miss it and soon it's passed us by.
We see the colors of the flowers that grow along the way
But there's so much more to them
When you look just a little closer;
As you near them, their fragrance comes alive,
The delicate petals, they cling together
And yet they started so small; just a tiny seed.
The trees, so green and lovely, imagine life without them?
The breeze, it comes and goes, it whispers so softly.
Have you ever noticed how sweet it can be and yet
It can be as mighty as a lion roaring at it's peak?
The grass beneath our feet no matter how it's trodden
It continues to grow, has a mind of it's own.
The sun so far away, yet it's warmth so near.
The clouds, ever changing; their design paints the sky
Art in it's purest form!
By the end of the day, the sun does an encore
As it sets below the horizon
Such beauty, even as it says goodbye until tomorrow.
Everywhere we go, wherever we look...
Life offers it's beauty, free of charge to us.
But it doesn't end there-
The day turns to dusk...the twilight fills the sky;
More beauty to behold!
The stars twinkle their magic, the moon changes it's faces.
Life, have you really seen it?
Have you noticed lately?
The admission is free...but still it doesn't end.
As our dreams take us through yet another night
And we awaken to a new day, it's there once again.
The beauty continues...
Have you looked, did you see?
Take the time; it's worth the effort...
Which isn't really very much at all.
