Many Wonders


Look up at the sky

Millions of stars as far as the eye can see

Each one a small miracle

That seems far beyond our reach

 

Seems like we wait

For that miracle, something grand

That will turn our world around

Evil will fall and goodness will stand

 

What about the small things?

The tiny miracles that come daily

A mother's touch, a stranger's smile

The innocence in the eyes of a baby

 

There is not one morning

The sun does not rise

And shine bright through a window

Clouding the darkness by its light

 

In the gloom of the night sky

A sparkle from a star

A warm embrace from a friend

Making everything seem less dark

 

And as I grow older

I hope to never lose sight

Of all these many wonders

That bring our world to life
