Grace and Gratitude

Grace and Gratitude
The fraternal twins of love and peace
Are what the world needs now.
We are held in the palm of a world
Graced with beauty
Alive with colour
Vibrating with thoughts
Turned into energy
Manifesting in vivid landscapes
Surreal structures
And bold architecture
That feeds the hungry mind
And soothes the restless heart.
We walk through this world
Surrounded by beauty:
The scent of flowers
Awakening our senses,
The shade of trees
Umbrellas under the sun
The autumn leaves
Changing colours falling,
Pristine snowflakes
Melting on our tongues
River, mountains, canyons, pastures
Accenting our horizons.
A world filled with grains of sand
A world in each grain of sand.
Behold the beauty
Of this world filled with grace
And surely
You will be filled with gratitude.
