I wonder how the gentle breezes blow
without a sound but whispers in my ear,
and softly touch the blossoms as they go.
They are unseen.
In Nature’s world, small miracles abound
and only seen when looking with a clear
desire to see the tiny marvels found.
These mysteries.
I wonder how they are unseen
in Nature’s world, these mysteries.
