The Wonder of It All

Joe Giso

The Wonder of it all
For one so small
Infinite Heaven filled with stars
An ocean view
vast and true
I have seen Life and Death
Shed tears of joy and sadness
Beautiful sunrises and sunsets
Ecstasy and agony
Light or Darkness
Whatever it may be
Pierce the eyes that see
With such clarity and honesty
The balance of life
that accompanies me
The Wonder of it all
For one so small
