Magic

The world comes alive in any morning

where the heart paints the light with make believe,

looks for enchantment in any sky

and seeks the impossible among flowers and hills,

lets the day become a miracle

filled with happiness that glows inside.

 

It is the beauty that comes to any sunrise

when you dip the rays in the colors of hope

as they streak those bright red touches

over every shadow and thought

until they nearly shine in their splendor.

 

How it brings so much joy into any view of life

if we look for the magic among the thorns,

just treat it as a celebration of what is special

in anywhere we happen to walk,

which we appreciate for its wonders.

 

For when we feel more than think

stroll to find the treasure nature hides,

each trip becomes an adventure

always leading to those surprises

that make a moment like a dream.
