Keats' Song

Keats.egg on Aviary.

I’ve seen much greatness throughout my days.
Beautiful and amazing creatures have crossed my ways.
A dazzling smile or a sorrowful tear,
Awakens my eyes to how things appear.
A stunning sunrise and a beautiful flower
have instantly overcome me with its power.
The feel of the mist that the ocean sprays
Has captured my attention in unknown ways.
Everywhere I look is filled with magnificence,
And the beauty I see takes my breath away in an instant.
All this I see is from no mistake.
It is just a few of the things that God could make.
