Beauty
by Matthew Hollander

Association with Amazon.com
.


a chorus of wide eyed birds belt out an early morning gospel.
eye-popping flowers adorn spring trees with unrivaled grandeur.
wild black stallions thunder across an open prairie into the horizon.
staggered bolts of lightening decorate the sky like the brushstrokes of Picasso.
snow tumbles down the crest of a mountain peak that reaches
the heavens.
clouds surrender an open night sky where contentious stars
outshine one another.
a school of dolphins pierce the maritime air with surgeon-like
precision and grace.
aqua blue velvet water careens down a waterfall into a pristine pool .
we need only open our eyes to look past the misery in life,
and see the beauty around us.
and with the thousand words that every image brings,
its the windfall of emotions that follows,
that brings us up from our knees,
to touch a piece of heaven.
