AWED BEYOND MEASURE

Eagles fly up

Souring high above the clouds

There they see the earth

Clad in its utmost beauty

Created in perfection

The perfect work of a perfectionist

A creativity not known to man

The waters separate from land

Water with its mighty force

Could have drowned the earth in a heartbeat

But my, it stays in its place

Not wanting to upset its creator

The sun, moon and stars

Should have all fallen by now

But nay, they stay put up there

Gloriously doing their bid

The ant, one of the tiniest creatures

Going about its business down there

Looks up and admires creation

Stars shining bright in the night sky

Moon in the shape of an orange or banana

Trees standing tall with fruits hanging sweet

Birds flying and singing as they go

What more could we ask for?

Why then do we lament?

We have a creator who’s got our back

Making all things beautiful

Even when we deserve less

Things are gonna go sour, yes

But they ain’t gonna stay so forever

Rejoice and admire the lil’ things

The tiny baby that comes forth from a woman’s womb

Such wonder; ain’t He awesome

The tears that flow freely from our eyes

In times of joy and sorrow

The unexpected farts

The smile that forms on our faces

And the little reflexes that we experience

Oh what wonder there is to behold
