Life is a miracle
The beauty of it mostly gets missed
As we continue daily routines the beauty of this world often fades into the mist.
For we are always busy
Running here and there
That we don't take a little time
To stop and think and share
Share a moment of surrounding beauty
Like daffodils in the spring
Or the morning sun rise
As beautiful birds graciously sing
Or a child laughing innocently
Playing on a swing
If only you just took a minute to breath these moments in.
Stop rushing through the days
Stop worrying and being annoyed
At silly insignificant things
You are missing the beauty of the world
And the joy that moments bring
The colours of the autumn leaves the texture
Crisp and soft
Go play in them for a moment before that moments lost.
The white snow and its texture make a snowman or snow angel before you go
Wherever it is that your going
Your missing life's graces whenever you say no
Go have fun in the sun
Or talk and hug a loved one
Laugh with friends until you cry
Everyday is a blessing for all of us to try
The breeze on your face and the sound of gentle waves, the beauty of the deep blue sea to embrace
The warmth of the sun rays or the fluffy white clouds in the sky
Silence your mind and feelings
Take a walk before the time passes you by.
A silky red rose to admire or the feel of a comforting hand in hand or
Bare feet on the soft golden sand
A butterfly flying with elegance
The moon in the night sky with twinkling stars
Take a moment to capture and stop wherever that you are
The beauty of the land, all flowers, trees and green grass
Take a look at all its glory before its out of your grasp
A colourful rainbow
Gazing at a new born baby from head to toe
Feel the rain on your skin
Don't hide under an umbrella
Your time soon could be up
We don't have a forever
Tell your loved ones how much they mean and see everyday a blessing there's something good for you to see no matter what the mess you're in
As before you know it, it will be too late
Your days on earth will be over
To stop & think & appreciate.

THANKS KAY ~ for a wonderful uplifting Poem for a Monday ! I love the Structure & Subject of this delightful Poem. "I say to myself what a Wonderful World !"
Your Poem flows well (Rhythm) and has lots & lots of Rhyme. Some of the longer lines (3, 14, 23, 30 & 34) could be split into TWO LINES to give it a better shape. Shape is important in a Printed Poem. Line 46 would need to split into THREE LINES ~ OK.
I love the Areas of Nature you highlight ! Daffodils ~ Birds ~ Children ~ Autumn leaves, colour & texture ~ Snow (awesome) ~ Hugs & Laughter ~ Sun & Clouds ~ Roses ~ Butterflies ~ Moon ~ Land & Trees ~ New Born Babies (Miracles) ~ Love Ones !
STOP ~ THINK ~ APPRECIATE ~ Awesome Poem ~ Sound advice ~ LOVE IT Thanks for sharing ~ YOURS BRIAN
