Beauty!

Beauty, behold,I am envious.
Yes, you!
I saw, when a baby smiled
I felt, in a mothers love           
I heard , in a father’s words                      
I had , in the hug of a brother
In the friendships around
And, in the trust of a lover or spouse

Beauty, if only , we could see
In the triumph of our enemy.
In the midst of failure.
In the eyes of a stranger.
In the ways of another
In the lives of our neighbour

Beauty, if we truly saw, beneath everything.
There would be boundaries but no wars
There would be colours but  only oneness
There would be religions but spirituality will reign.
There would be genders but be treated  equals
There would be differences but unified in action
There would be bad ,but good will remain.

Yes, I would be you and you would be me.
And GOD, if you do believe, will rest.
