RANDOM BEAUTY
Thank you, Lord, for
random beauty.
Sunflowers on the side
of a dry, hot, dusty road.
A hawk soaring
just overhead
close enough to see
the pattern of it’s feathers.
Cloud formations
that look like
turtles.
Itty bitty
puppy breath.
A quiet pine forest
flocked in snow.
A kitten’s purr.
A warm smile.
Shared.
A kind gesture.
A gentle word.
A loving hug.
A child’s laugh
somewhere in the store
a few aisles over.
Thank You, Lord.
Please make me
more
aware
of the random beauty
You sprinkle
my day with.
Every day.
In Jesus’ name.
Amen.
