The Man on the Hill

Lazily sitting on
a green
grassy knoll,
watching the clouds
as they flutter by
and the multitude of
birds flying busily
high in the sky,
beautiful

A smile from
a loved one,
warms
the soul and a
hug fires the love
for each other,
the beauty of life
embracing us and
for once we forget
about the violence
around us,
wonderful

Helping hands
across the world,
lending a hand to
those who have fallen
never worrying about
recognition, the joy
alone
suffices,
it seems then
we realize
that all of
us make this
earth matter
Glorious!

Sitting on the grassy
knoll, staring at the
clouds as they race by,
a cool, crisp
wind whispers in
my ear, "Beautiful,
wonderful and glorious."

I smile and watch
the clouds float
lazily by.
