Eyes That See - Beyond!
by Robert Bruce Baird
Eyes That See – Beyond:
To capture the grandeur of Divine
With my puerile basic rhyme
A task I know I’ll not achieve
Though thought or soul I perceive
Lake Louise in translucent green and blue
The Mojave Desert after rain while flowers grew
The Canyons, cliffs and colors vibrant
The sounds of birds and water rushing discordant
When the dangers become apparent
To all that lives and is verdant
The Florida Keys, the Yucatan
I never got to see Japan.
Driving in the Rocky Mountain
Amazing changes of trees and rain
To the eyes that never knew
Grand nature I shared with you
Each new thing that we came upon
Your eyes lit up, they truly shone
Real change came a year thereafter
As these horizons freed your rapture.
I remember when you saw Sedona
Coming through the forest past Oak Creek
And all the things you said ‘We’re gonna’
Each time a new vista you did peek
Was matched in all that you did seek
Touched me more than I’d ever known
Made me know how much I’ve grown
The open eyes of children see
Nature free as it should be
Imagine this – you did thank me?!
