True Beauty

by Tiera, age 15

 

You never cease to amaze me
With the beauty of your works
So precious and amazing
Everything from the stars to the dirt.
Lovely is everything
That comes from your hand
This earth once so pure
And it's magnificent land
Destroyed and misused
By the works of man
Who don't realize they can't remake it
Only you can.
Nothing is more precious
Than the mid-night sky
And because of this
You're lifted high
Because of shimmering stars
You're glorified
Because of cool flowing rivers
You're magnified.
You created the earth
Said "let there be night"
I love your sunsets
And how you make lilies bloom
And more now than ever I realize,
True beauty comes from you.
