I strugggle, I think, to see you
Until I step into your world
Into the winter-clad garden I venture
And there you are
In the early bulb shoots
pushing through the frost-bitten earth
In the call of the birds
in the bare, barren trees
In the green - just a word for a thousand hues
Pearlescent, suffused in sunlight
The vibrant red of berries on a leafless branch
In each and every one I see you
Your beauty and your majesty
so easy to miss
To rush unseeing by
But when I pause
You are all around
Thank you for giving me eyes
to see you this way
When the dark crevices of my mind
present endless distractions
Your beauty is true
Your light prevails
And you draw me back to you
