Original poem - Gifts from God

God's gift to us: the lavender and

the bee

I'm not much of a poet but sometimes I just like to express myself and my thoughts. So, here's my meager effort to share...

Sunrise and sunset,

time is a gift

that rarely one appreciate

until it is too late.

No service is done

by our headlong rush,

For God's gift of beauty

shall we likely miss.

Every breath is a gift,

A gift of life, of moments,

For who knows

when the journey's end.

Looking out, searching within,

To seek the Truth,

A precious gift

for those with understanding.

The ultimate prize,

so illusive is it,

that rarely we attain,

God's gift of peace.
