Blanket of blue..........

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder,
truth or fiction, how can this be?
Or are our senses fine tuned,
not what we see, but how we see?

Each time you gaze into the horizon,
quenching your soul with God's gifts.
Go ahead, embark on a leap of faith,
experience the joy when your spirit lifts.

Tasting all that lies in the beyond,
enwrapped in an endless blanket of blue.
Surpass the clouds, stars, galaxies,
searching, reaching the heavens true .

Take the first step into infamy,
set yourself free in a sea of green.
Allow your soul's senses to embrace,
all that the eye has never really seen.

Endless beauty is in abundance,
every tree stretching to reach the sky.
Every bird spreading angel wings,
gliding, soaring to a brand new high.

Majestic mountains, grand lakes,
rivers, streams holding fast.
Deserts of time burying mysteries,
see it all now, before it surrenders past.

Each breath, each heart beat, thank God,
for it was he who gifted us, each one, all.
A delicate leaf gently lifted by wind,
each ripple of ocean current, hear the call.

Gently the tide makes its way,
moving, always moving, to another shore.
Just as your soul spans the test of time,
filled with an abundance of life evermore.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder,
truth or fiction, how can this be?
Or are our senses fine tuned,
not what we see, but how we see?
