How Beautiful

Majestic trees horizon line
With autumn light upon their leaves
Nearer by, the blushing blossom
Apidael love receives

Birds spread wings beneath the sun,
Soar effortlessly ~
How excellent the artwork
All around us daily be!

This lush and verdant hillside,
Ne’er content remaining same,
Through sunlight and through shadow
Many hills today became

Above it all, a sky forever
Magically changing hue
According to its whims of weather
Grey to purple, pink to blue

Nor forget we watching see
Mirrored every wild desire
In the leaping upward dance
Of ruby-hearted fire!

And in the water, crystalline
Greens perpetually swirl ~
How beautiful, how beautiful,
How beautiful this world…
