Nothing is Mundane
“Beauty is unpredictable”
Beauty is unpredictable:
The color spray of wildflowers across a meadow,
a shooting star streaking across the sky in a trail of sparkling wishes,
the wind dancing across the tops of tall trees swaying,
Fireflies choreographing tonight's particular twilight stories.
Can we presume beauty?
To know a thing will indeed rouse the soul and awe the beholder?
Isn't beauty something spectacular?
Beauty is unpredictable:
A language of inspiration known through the heart,
Bewildering to the mind.
A transportation to glimpse the divine,
Reminding us that mundane is a boring point of view,
And wonder is a way of realizing
Nothing is really mundane now, is it?
