"God's Eyes"
If only I could see the creation of nature through God's eyes, how different would it be?
Would I see the wonders that surround me?
I see the beautiful shape of a tree and the intricate pattern of its leaves,
The colors of the sky as the sun rises and sets through the clouds and
the imagined shapes I can picture there.
I smell the air and earth around me after the rain and marvel at the freshness of it all.
To inhale the fragrance of a beautiful flower as I reach over to caress the soft petals.
I marvel at the imagination of God when he created all of the animals of the earth, every species is unique.
Reflections of the sunlight as it sparkles on the lakes and oceans like a mirror.
The depths and heights of each mountain peak takes my breath away.
The glorious forest as fall changes its' colors like a kaleidoscope from tree to tree.
I am fond of thinking that God took a paint brush and created a tapestry of beauty to behold.
Springtime brings carpets of wild flowers in the fields and blooms in the gardens.
The butterflies and bees, touching flower after flower, each depending on the other
to survive.
All of the colors, fragrance and beauty of God's creation just outside my door so that I all I have to do is open it and step out into my very own paradise!
I have seen a glimpse through God's eyes at the world he would have me to see and I thank you Lord for all of creation and making it just for me

Poetry: Natural beauty
The dream into the imagination of man,
Bring us to unknown worlds of great distances,
Unlike our very own and to wondrous
Reaching my hands up to the sky,
Blocking the sun from your eye.
Giving warmth from the cold,
Offering something strong to
I sat upon the seawall
its haunches
weathered grey
and marveled at the August sun
which bore a golden ray
The screeching seagulls
played
Beautiful you!
What is natural beauty? Is it the pictures that we canvas in our mind?
Is it the perfection that comes from
DAWNWATCH
First a hint
and then a glimmer
drifting across a slow sky-
Dawn begins. A tint
dyeing the stars to dimmer
