Good Things

These are things I like to see,
Autumn leaves upon a tree,
Friends I’ve not seen in awhile,
A happy child that wears a smile.

The way the sky looks at the dawn,
A shinny lake the moon shines on,
A rose that’s been kissed by the dew,
Springtime when all things are new.

Clouds painted on a clear blue sky,
The beauty of a butterfly,
Sunset with its colors bright,
The brilliance of a starry night.

Sometimes I think we close our eyes,
And not allow our selves to realize.
That life is good for you and me,
If the good is what we choose to see.

Jack Roberts – October 29 2002
