Allow me to paint you a world of beauty, let me show you the world through my eyes.
Imagine the mountains, the glorious grey peaks sprinkled with a dusting of white snow stretching higher then the eye can see
And below it thousands of trees coming from the ground, reaching up to say hello to the heavens.
The forest lets loose too a beautiful vast meadow springing with colorful flowers and startling green grass.
Stallions of all colors run free, frolicking, playing, their manes swaying in the breeze, their young learn the world.
Butterflies spread their wings, their colors and innocent beings adding to the beauty of the landscape as they greet the flowers.
Birds glide in the wind singing their songs to the wilderness, open their wings to play tag with one another, free.
The light of the sun covers the world in a blanket of warmth caressing Mother Nature’s creations with love.
Fluffy white clouds flow gently in the endless blue sky waving to the earth as they pass through.
Now you have seen the earth’s beauty through my eyes, perhaps it’s my turn to experience the world through yours.
