a quest for true and undeniable beauty

How magnificent a thing is this!

the one we have before us.

the songs of leaves

a soft sweet stir, 

a crackling symphony of sounds

to some, a lovely chorus

Do you listen for the wind?

Do you even realize,

stealthy as it is,

how rapidly it passes

let nature be the vehicle,

wholeheartedly accept this world 

embrace the warm breeze,

it's sun-kissed chassis

Only when one can love the world completely

will they be permitted by fate to

find the radiant field of flowers

when upon entering you're overwhelmed, 

regardless of personal powers

I loved the world with my whole being,

and aggravation replaced patience

when time after time I found these

fields of dandelions, lacking

pure radiance like that which I desired.

I was worn out,

I still loved just as much,

everything from the rivers

to the birds and the bees

I'm on the other side now

looking back.

Undwindling love

and a passionate drive

I found one at last 

hidden among the other flowers,

this is where I found my dove,

a Rose in a sea of daisies.

Really nice! .... Daisies wouldn't do a very good job hiding a rose, though, would they? :)

for someone as terribly colorblind as I am, you'd be surprised! thank you so much for both of your reviews Archos
