How beautiful the eagle
in rest or in flight,
and after all day
how beautiful the night;
how beautiful the weather
following a storm,
how beautiful the sunshine
so bright and so warm;
how beautiful the sound
of music to the ear,
and in laughter-not sorrow
how beautiful the tear;
how beautiful the first breath
as a child welcomes life,
how beautiful an old couple
celebrating being man and wife;
how beautiful the moon and stars
floating so free,
add up all these things and that’s
how beautiful you are to me.
I want the raw truth, feel free to knock me on my back
