More poems about Beauty Spots.

SPARKLING LAKE
You should see how the sun sparkles on
the lake
No human hand in jewellery could ever such
beauty make,
A thousand facets of diamonds with rich
silver and gold,
Seen amidst a garland of green leaves on
trees so old,
I stopped and wondered how many lovely things
the tree had seen,
How much pleasure from nature did the
branches glean.
Now the wind blows and tiny waves
now appear,
They too are touched and they dance and
give cheer
To those who just happen to maybe
passing near,
But we are blest to live right by it, a gift
so very dear.
