A Simple Poem Of Beauty

Have you ever seen a blooming rose sparkling with morning dew
Or how about fluffy white clouds on a canvas of softest blue
How can you not love to see daisies swaying in the breeze
Or birds making a life for themselves high up in the trees
Once I saw two little girls gazing at a ladybug with bliss
Amazing they found beauty, in a simple in like this
I love the sound the crickets make when the sun has finally set
And the lighting bugs giving a show you arent' likely to forget
I adore the moon when it is full and brightens the entire land'
And when I am sad nothing soothed more like the simple touch of my lover's hand
Yes, these are the things that make me see,that life really is worth while
And through my tears I can find the courage to lift my head and smile

This isn’t English class,

Thank you for your comment, but I wrote it the way I did for a reason. call it laziness if you choose,you have a right to your opinion, but i will not be changing it. there are no grammer rules to poetry. thanks for you comment. Greeneyes
