Delight
Green lizard sunning on red foliage so bright,
Does he know he is causing someone to delight?
Does he know he shines brilliantly like a gem?
Does he care if I stare in awe of him?
The beauty in nature is hard to deny,
It is colorful candy to my eye,
God painted it all with His own hand,
It is not by chance, lest we misunderstand,
So, pause and look at what nature has to offer,
Mother Nature wears a tiara; Do not be a scoffer,
The artistry of the earth is found all around,
In the green of the trees and the grass on the ground,
In the purple wildflowers swaying gently in the sun,
In the orange sunset when the day is done,
Or in the majestic black of the night sky,
With the specks of sparkling stars upon high,
Don’t miss the canvas that is right in front of us,
It is worth the effort, which is why I make this fuss,
It is a God-given gift of delight,
It can turn deep darkness into light,
Delight in the Lord and His creation,
He is the source of our strength and salvation,
There is beauty to be found everywhere we look,
Take the opportunity to put it in your mind’s photobook.
