Have
you ever seen the ocean,
The waves crashing
against the sand,
Have you ever seen the
sunrise,
Shine across the land,
Have you ever see the stars
above,
As evening dies away,
Have you ever seen the
mountains,
On a beautiful spring
day,
Have you ever held the one you
love
And whisper “I love
you" through the night
Have you ever held a secret,
And giggled in delight?

These
Humble Beauties,
These Wondrous sights
Have all been seen,
In faded light
Never truly seen or tasted,
Never taken for their
worth
Never do we realize, what
beauties we all share
Until the day we will
lose it all,
These things, once gone, we
never can recapture,
The
beauty of all Mothers,
The beauty of the night,
The beauty in loving one
another,
The beauty….Of our lives…
