It is the smile in the eyes of a mother
naturetimeloveidentity
It is the smile in the eyes of a mother
The look on the face of a child
At the first sight of snow
Adoration in the words of a lover
The guiding hand of a father
The explosion of surprise
When someone says I love you
Beneath a copper-bottomed sky
It is a thing of beauty
The mist rolling off the lowlands
Sunlight bouncing off a lake
Children holding hands
As they skip through a cornfield
The love dance of the Damselfly
The joyous burst of sound
As geese take to the air
The way that I feel
Whenever I think of you
It is a thing of beauty
